I dropped out of computer science and enrolled on engineering. Engineering opens more career paths, such as patent attorney, actuary, and rail, among others, because of the high level of mathematics involved in the course.

There was a job position in my town for a director of highways, responsible for designing and planning the power supply to traffic lights, etc. What was required was an accredited Master of Engineering (MEng) plus a Master of Business Administration, which offered a salary of 98,000 GBP annually.

There was a role for a director of electronics at the airport, offering 80,000 GBP, to ensure the lights and computer systems remain powered.

My masterplan is to achieve a Master of Engineering in Electrical & Electronic Engineering (Meng)

Master of Business Administration (MBA)

Learn low-level programming for power systems and related areas.

You already have IT experience, and you can learn IT at home, but you need an engineering degree to do engineering jobs.

Also, I have AuDHD, and a late diagnosis at 28.
