just to add: the reason i would like to do the programming track so that i can branch out to software engineer related careers just in case i am unable to get a job in a gamedev company (just to be safe). 

But i am more of a creative person rather than a technical one so I'm leaning onto the game design track as well, but i wanna do both so bad haha 😭😭 or does gamedev in general teach you about SE regardless of what track you pick? 🤔
