I am currently in college and I am an Architecture major, but I am considering changing to something web design related. I was thinking that Computer Sciences would be my best bet, but I wonder what you professionals out there did?

1. Architecture to web design? That'll *really* hit your wallet after you graduate.
2. Computer Science and web design are two completely different subjects.
Regarding my degree .. I have a 1st* (Hons) in Broadcast Technology.
* That's basically the best one ..

so web design, and computer science are two seperate fields then, I figured the programming and such would be computer sciene realted but I guess not.

web design falls under arts or communications departments quite often. ... or marketing

Yeah, web programming and web design are vastly different and educational institutes treat them as such
