For some context, I recently started my master’s program in technical communication because I work as a technical writer for a software company. I have a B.A. in English Technical Communication as well. I’ve been considering going back to college for computer science or possibly engineering after completing this degree because it will significantly improve my earning ability and career viability as a technical writer.
The main issue with this plan is I don’t have the strongest skills in math / science but I also didn’t try much with math during my original schooling. I have consulted with one college I thought of applying to when I finish my master’s, and I essentially have 5 semesters worth of core classes I need to then 2 years of strictly computer science. (These are just math courses which I’ve also checked can be taken at my local community college and just require 1-2 at a time because of pre-reqs).
