So I’ve just started my Master’s in CS and wanted to know what subjects (aside from DS and Algo) to review from my bachelor’s that would be important to know while searching for a job as well as which would be useful while on the job. The reason I ask is because I kinda bumbled my way through my Bachelor’s and didn’t really study the subjects well so I want to take the time to relearn them if they’re important to whatever job I’m gonna get (most probably software engineering). For reference here are some of the subjects that were part of my curriculum:

  • Data Structures using C
  • Design and Analysis of Algorithms
  • OOP using JAVA
  • Database Management Systems
  • Operating Systems
  • Software Engineering
  • Data Communications
  • Compiler Construction
  • Object Oriented System Development
  • Computer Networks
  • Web Programming and Services
  • Distributed Systems
  • Embedded Systems
  • Software Project Management
  • Artificial Intelligence
  • Data Mining

    Wow, thanks for the compehensive reply comrade.

    Type systems like the ones used in Haskell and Rust are much more flexible IMO

    I only know about OOP. Where can I learn about other useful programming paradigms?

    Data Mining? :gulag:

    Can I ask why lol?

    Web Programming is miserable

    Is it really that bad? What causes it to be worse than other tech jobs?
