[QUOTE="Vanadium 50, post: 5948464, member: 110252"] First and most importantly, you should be really, really careful about taking career advice from 14-year olds. Second, if I were choosing between two recent graduates for a job that is in, to take your example, algorithm design, I would favor the candidate with the better background in algorithm design. A candidate who worked on classical algorithms would have an edge over one who worked on quantum computing, just as she would have an edge over someone who worked on, say, operating systems. Third, if someone gets a degree in CS (or for that matter, physics) with a dissertation in quantum computing, I know what I'm getting. If it's an actual degree in "quantum computing", I don't. Degrees in trendy things seem to sprout up like mushrooms. You saw this in nanotechnology -there are a dozen community colleges that now (or did - now that it's no longer so hot, some are closing down) offer an AA in "nanotechnology". [/QUOTE]
