@kabhishek that'd be really awesome if unis would let you pair a CS degree with any arts degree, especially those with a focus on creativity

@plumbus I tried that, sadly a lot of the content you're asked to write mostly consist of keywords on the topics you're given (some of which are personally distasteful, depending on the client). And the deadlines are insane! Kudos to the writers able to do it, I'd say they have stronger constitutions than I do.
I graduated college with double degrees in literature and marketing management. Web and software development and design was a hobby that became my way of life and eventual career path. I guess it's more of a challenge than a hurdle, not having a formal IT education as a foundation, but I'm happy to have learned a lot from my colleagues over the years to better myself as a dev in practice, if not in academics.
