Hello there.
I'm currently studying computer science engineering and I'm in the middle of my degree.
I was wondering about improving my curriculum with some certifications in programming and unix/windows systems administration thats why I joined this forum :-)

Hi and welcome to CF!

Depending on the exact degree you are doing I would have thought that that was a better 'cert' than most of the programming certs out there. Unless there is a particular language that you want to specialize in.

And it is easy to pick up a older machine and make it dual-boot into Windows and, say, Linux in order to hone your admin skills.

Harry.
