It's no secret: high-tech careers pay well, and there are lots of jobs that go begging.

But are you right for a career in the computer world? Can someone with a history degree get a computer job? The answer is "yes", but it may be tough for you to break into the world of high-tech at first, and anything you have done relating to computers in addition to your studies will be to your advantage. First of all, keep in mind that the "computer" field today is vast. There are people from virtually every imaginable educational background working in high technology today. You'll find those with degrees in languages, communications, and education working in training departments, on website teams, and on documentation. Software programmers can come from virtually any background from art to history to philosophy to mechanical engineering. And there are more than a few well-known technology managers who have a background in psychology. But the beauty of the computer world is that experience matters as much as, if not more than your formal education. It helps, of course, if your degrees can act as confirmation of the skills you're trying to sell, but clearly if you have developed a verifiable skill in a hot area, you'll find work. The main message of the passage is that______. A.the computer world is also open to people with other degrees. B.the computer world is a tough and highly specialized one. C.people with non-computer degrees are unable to get good jobs. D.software programmers usually have degrees in computer science.
