I want to be able to have the ability to create programs, applications, and websites when I have the idea without feeling frustrated due to the lack of knowledge of how these systems are implemented. Furthermore, I want to be able to apply this knowledge to a career in game development or software engineering. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Part Two: Setting My Career Goals <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>For a career, I want to be able to assist with the development of video games. As discussed in my industry analysis paper, I want to become a tools engineer that develops and maintains game engines and other development software. I want to be able to become experienced enough with this career to work at the studios which make the games that I love. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Part Three: A Wild Guess<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>At the end of my undergraduate education at CSUMB, I will be taking the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ets.org\/mft\/about\/content\/computer_science\"><em>ETS <\/em>Major Field Test for Computer Science. <\/a>Reading through the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ets.org\/Media\/Tests\/MFT\/pdf\/mft_samp_questions_compsci.pdf\">ETS sample test questions<\/a>, I see a lot of questions that I am familiar with and could answer <em>now<\/em>, and a lot of them that read like Greek to me. Given that, I feel that in 18 months from now, I could likely score with an 80% score using former and upcoming education. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Part Four: Week in Review<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In this week&#8217;s lecture, the focus was on setting goals. We learned specifics on setting career goals. Among these, there was discussion of networking with other professionals, understanding your value in the job market, and effective negotiation. We also reviewed our teammate&#8217;s struggles with study habits and offered suggestions and compared them to our own. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the writing lab, we continued our studies of ethics. We discussed different types of claims, specifically claims of fact, definition, cause, value, and policy. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Part One: Setting My Educational Goals After my computer science education, I want to be able to write code that I am proud of.
