How helpful is a comp sci degree in tech writing field?
Been a tech writer in the software industry for 12 years. In that time learned cloud computing, lightweight scripting, and AI tooling. Really enjoyed it.
Most of my team was laid off last year and I'm working a temp role right now, but seeing lots of FTE job openings requiring a bachelor's in computer science.
How important is it to meet that exact requirement in this field right now? I have a master's in creative writing and undergrad in sociology, but not sure I want to invest $40K and 2 years in a bridge master's in CS.
