A Day in the Life of a Software Engineering Student | ConU

I wanted to take you guys into my journey to give you a broad overview of what its like to study software engineering. As a second year student, I have many things I’d love to share with you video-graphically. Why do I say video-graphically? As some of my viewers know, I have been active on Instagram for the past year, documenting my journey as I become a software engineer and make my way into owning my own business. With all this being said, I think sharing those experiences through YouTube would definitely be a nice way of motivating people to accomplish their studies and goals.
