FlexGunship, I love you man! This is what I wanted the whole time but didn't know what to look for! Thanks a bunch!

I'd really like to get into soldering, and possibly making electronics. Would Comp E cover that or would I need EE?

lubuntu, Thanks for the input; my interest is generally in robotics and hardware programming. But software development I do not want anything to deal with. I've been told that Comp. Eng. is more geared towards what I 'want', but I need more input.

Well, There are two aspects of programming that I like: scripting, and hardware level programming (such as embedded and C). I also would like to be able to build hardware and program that hardware. I have been led to believe that Computer Engineering may be what I seek?

I think my problem may be that I need a computing break... Considering I work on a computer 8 hours a day, I spend free time on the computer, I do my homework on a computer...

Thanks for the input... Coding is just not something I can do; not because I can't but because it pains me to do it. I want a degree that is hands on; not data like Comp. Sci. I thought IT would be good, but I've found that customer service is needed for IT and to be honest I hate dealing with...

I have received my Assoc. degree in IT; which is by far one of my biggest regret, as I hate this field. I took three comp. sci classes (Intro, OOP 1, and C++) and cannot bring myself to program even as a hobby. As a matter of fact programming bores me to all hell. I have tried to make myself...

KhemicalKarma: Astronomy is an extremely rewarding science, had to put that out there. My Astronomy teacher in college has a MS in Astrophysics (from MSU) and has had no problems finding work... That is teaching work. He teaches Astronomy and Physics at CC's around Michigan. Now big jobs such...

First things first... Who cares about pay... Don't make the mistake I did... I get paid well and hate my job... Do what you love.

When I started school (2-3 years ago) I thought the best field to get into would be the IT field. Few months later I get an IT job and it's "meh", then I get a better paying IT job and it is even more "meh". Long story short I cannot stand my classes and have grown to hate the IT field, hate...
