What profession is best for a programmer?

Question

IT education

What specialty is more promising and in demand? "Mathematical support and administration of information systems" or "Software engineering"?

Answer 1

And hell knows. If this is a private sharaga, then these words can mean anything.
If public, then name the university.
Personally, I tend to the second option, "mathematical" in the first evokes the idea of ​​the prevalence of matan before programming.

Answer 2

None, almost all Russian education remained in the last century

Answer 3

Forget about the names, they are made to lure students and nothing more. Look carefully at the entire curriculum and draw conclusions about what you will eventually know.
At one time I entered the "Micro- and Nanoelectronics", and graduated in the specialty "Physical-Biomedical Electronics" with the qualification of "electronic engineer".
Naturally, during the training, there was no micro and even more so nanoelectronics, only general information about the design of medical equipment + a little physics and a little mathematics.
Don't make mistakes - don't look at the titles.

Answer 4

"Mathematical support and administration of information systems" or "Software engineering"

It is interesting what educational institutions are counting on if, by the names of specialties, no one can understand who they train. That graduates themselves will explain who they are in their cover letters to the employer... It seems to me that this alone is an indicator of the isolation of universities from reality. Yes, see the curriculum.
