From Social Work to Programming?
#7
Something else to consider....
I have a Sociology and Psych undergrad degrees and I decided I wanted to work in the computer field.  At the time it would take me 89 credit hours to get a bachelors in computer science, but only 39 to get a masters in CS, so I did that.  You would probably have to take a programming class in the school's language and then do all graduate classes.  I was lucky because some of the classes would include undergrad and grad students in the same class and they would have 2 course numbers (1 for undergrad and the other for grad, so I was able to get graduate credit).  


This is a very similar degree to the one I did: https://www.edx.org/masters/online-maste...-utaustinx
I had 2 undergrad social science degrees and it took 2.5 years.  

I will say that the combination was fantastic.  I worked at a large computer company and I had very different skills than most of the people....this was a good thing.  Big Grin
