If I had to sum up what I got out of my undergrad courses


If I had to sum up what I got out of my undergrad courses, it would be:

  1. basic mathematical literacy
  2. how to read things
  3. an extremely sketchy idea of how the internet works
  4. a vague idea of what “cybersecurity” is and means.

Which is to say that expecting to get employable skills out of a university degree program is probably a bad idea, since none of these is really something one can put on a résumé.
