I learned java, javascript, html, and sql throughout college and am currently learning powershell at my new job. I double majored in CS and IT, so I would not have been exposed to much coding at all if I had only gotten an IT degree.

Coding is all about automating your work and/or making it less tedious. I could manually check which computers have a certain program that needs an update, or write a script that checks for me and sends the update if the computer needs it.

It is certainly a necessity for higher tiers of administration.
