Year 12s: what will be the first way you research your future options? >>

Software Applications Development - Will I enjoy it?

Saam1996

So in September I'm going to Uni to undertake Software Application Development, following up from doing a Games/IT course and getting D*D*D at the end. I wasn't really sure what exactly I wanted to be doing but I knew I wanted it to obviously be something in computers, so I looked at my choices. I've recently been enjoying programming c# in Unity 3D and I also have 2 years of Blender experience behind my belt. As well as this I also have some experience in HTML programming and thoroughly enjoyed this too.(web design). In the end I settled for Software App Development as I'm determined to actually find work when I complete my course.

This is the current course content:

•

Personal and Professional Development 1

•

Work-Based Learning 1

•

Introduction to Android Mobile Applications Development

•

Website Fundamentals

•

Introduction to iPhone Development

•

Introduction to Dynamic Web Applications

Year Two

•

•

•

ASP.Net web applications or C+ (I think this is supposed to be C# or so it reads on the ucas description for the course)

•

Further Android Development

•

Further ASP Net

•

Further iPhone/iPad Development.

If I've already shown an interest in software programming
(game I created recently: http://gamejolt.com/games/wrong-way/85428) do you think I'll enjoy this course? The only other options I wanted to do were games programming/development but I was told they were less job opportunities :smile:
