2nd-year student trying to learn DevOps — what should I focus on?

I'm a 2nd-year CSE student trying to learn DevOps properly. Most roadmaps I've found are huge lists of tools, and I'm more interested in understanding the fundamentals than just following tutorials.

For someone starting from the basics, how would you recommend approaching DevOps?

Specifically:

  • How much Linux and networking should I learn first?
  • When should I move into AWS?
  • Should I learn Docker before Kubernetes?
  • What projects actually demonstrate useful DevOps skills?
  • What would you prioritize if you were starting again as a student?

I'm ultimately aiming for a DevOps/cloud internship, so I'd really value advice from people working in the field.
