Does your type of degree matter in landing a tech job? /u/Smooth_Operator13 CSCQ protests reddit

I am taking a Bachelor of Science in Computer Applications, which is a mix of hardware and software. I am worried that because it is a new program, it would be harder for me to land a job compared to the conventional Computer Science (CS) degree.

I had the last opportunity to shift to CS earlier today because it was the last day of enrollment, but my advisor encouraged me to stay in this program, saying it would be a good course to take in the future, based on predicted trends in tech jobs. So, I decided to continue with this program. I also want to continue because I am interested in robotics.

The program has two majors: Embedded Systems and IoT. Did I make the right choice?
