I know what compsci is, but it’s no longer what it was in the past. It’s now the catch all for most IT jobs. Dev included. And a ton of software is developed for windows because windows is the most dominant os in the world. This isn’t some dig at Linux or macos, it’s just the facts.
Not in either of the universities I’ve been to. You can go study IT if you want the catch-all, computer science is computer science and is NOT meant to be job prep. In fact, you’re expected to go to vocational college for job prep, not an academic university. Those guys will teach you practical stuff down to specifics of different Microsoft software.
Unless it’s changed, IT was never a major in any colleges I’ve been to or studied at. It’s always been labeled compsci. It’s kinda like if someone asked what your major was in and you said health. At least that has been my experience.
