Right now I'm 20 years old going into my 3rd year as a computer graphics major, but now I understand that I don't need a degree to do that despite learning so much that I couldn't have on my own. But now I just feel uncomfortable about my future. I love Computer graphics with a passion, but I want to be realistic. I'm one of the few people that actually don't mind doing math at all, so I would think engineering would be the practical route to go. I have patience with solving problems but I hate reading and typing useless papers so I wouldn't want to do nursing or something(like my mom suggested). I think I would lean more into computer or electrical engineering. But I have 2 options that I am thinking about right now.
1. Taking one more semester of computer graphics, then transferring to an engineer school.(this means that I may graduate 2-4 years later.
2. Finishing my last 4 semesters and getting the computer graphics degree. Then go to engineering school which might take 3 years or so.
I honestly have no idea what I should do. If I do the first one I might get into engineer earlier with better financial options, but what happens if I can't pass engineering? If I do the second one, then I might have a degree which might be useless, and I may get into engineering later with less financial benefits, but if I fail I at least have a degree despite it not being as useful. But no matter what happens I'll always be doing computer graphics. I would like to know what you guys think about it.
