Each to their own opinion,
Do u know how many types of jobs an electronics engineer can do?
I hardly doubt I’ll be limiting myself. I don\'t need all the little computer based certs for it or getting a job in it. That’s what the advanced diploma and degrees are for.
If you end up working for a company doing hardware based crap, guess what. You\'ll be doing hardware based crap. If you don\'t like software and end up being moved to software based section, you\'d probably either quit or be very unhappy. I\'ll pass thanks, i prefer hardware and i\'ll focus just on that.
