I study psychology and have had a love for computers for a long

boy are you in for a suprise

The course you're looking for is software engineering, not computer science.

OP Here. I have studied a bit of CS and programming-related math, but I have done so in order to further understand how programs work. Compilers, binary, stack, heap etc. Yet, I would still like to know how the hardware works and all that stuff.

I also like math, and would like to choose a degree that would lead me to learn more math. I am also taking extra courses on linear algebra and calculus.

In my country there is no graduation on that level. It is considered what we would call a "post-graduation", or major, I think. I'm not sure what it would be called in English.

>>60681515
Am I?

At my uni we had 1 programming course. The rest required programming, but taught other things

Why not try cyber psychology? It's a pretty cool field to be in.

>>60681428
CS is more like a pure math course.

Which your psychologybrain will never understand.

>>60681940
Hardware, compilers, binary etc are all low level stuff, near the metal, where CE lives. CS is the opposite.

>>60682161
Would you care to explain?

>Look at me, I'm mr superior brain!
Oh, brainlet creature, my field of interest goes beyond the humanities. Besides, could you develop further on that? I'm interested in math, as I said above.

>>60681982
Interesting.

>>60682088
Gonna look onto that.

Take a look at The Cyber Effect by Dr. Mary Aiken. Although the book isn't technical or very academic, she a very good writer and extremely qualified. She certainly confirmed a lot of ideas that I have on cyberpsychology.

I know the differences between high level and low level, mate. I just asked for further explanation on HOW CS is more associated with latter than with the former.

>>60682411
I said it as a literal warning and I don't study CS (anymore).

I took it one year before switching to
biochem.

So let me explain:
1. You took psychology which is not a science
2. You've never needed to think like a logical human being for years because you took it
3. All the maths involved is only for the very dedicated
4. What have you programmed?
If you don't know at least OOP you're doomed even before you've started CS
,

>>60682161
You also learn assembly and compilers in CS you retard

>>60682525
I didn't finish psychology yet, and I have been studying physics as an amateur since I left high school.

I have been studying calculus and linear algebra in order to pursue graphics programming as well

I have been programming the front and back end of websites with python and javascript. I have also done some puzzles in C. And I do know OOP.

I also automated some stuff on my PC through python, mainly the building of spreadsheets in a more dynamic way through the terminal to facilitate my work. (I work part time as an English teacher)

I have also programmed a database page with the help of PHP to better organize the sales in the events of an arts collective I used to be part of.

So yeah.

>>60682712
besides we study some math in psychology too, mainly statistics.

also

Some branches of it are mere philosophical, but there are some branches with are scientifc.

That its not self-evident to you from looking up courses means I'm not actually sure how to explain it to you in concepts we both understand. I'll try again. Computer Scientists develop how a system should work, Computer Engineers implement it. CS would be used to design TCP. It took a CE to implement it as part of Windows. If you've been programming - as per your OP - that's a CE interest. If you've been designing a programming language, that's a CS interest.

And I learned the parts of an engine in a physics class, it didn't make me a driver.
