I am going to start my journey in software engineering so what language or knowledge should I learn in advance?

Hello student,

I am glad that you are starting a journey towards excelling in life and boosting your career.

Now, basically, first of all, you need to build a strong foundation for this field about all the concepts and subjects of software. So, I suggest that you start with C programming language in the beginning as its the first programming language ever built and will help you extensively to firm your basic understanding.

Later on, you can then shift to other programming languages such as python, java, etc according to the specialization that you are planning. This will help you to boost your skills in a particular domain and help you to be the best in it

I hope this helps, All the Best!

Hi aspirant,

It is very nice to hear that you will be pursuing a career in software engineering and being from same domain I can give you the best suggestions regarding it. If you want to get amazing packages and offers you need to to build your programming skills from as early as possible. During the four years of your engineering you will come across several languages which will include python, Java, c ,c plus plus JavaScript and many more. So you should start learning either python or java which act as the basic languages from now onwards so that you will have better understanding of algorithms and syntax of core programming. Once you will understand it it will be much much easier for you to do programming in other languages as well because you will get familiar to the algorithm and later you can start learning front end or backend development whichever you want to prefer.

Though there is enormous job opportunities in IT sector but the competition for higher level jobs and good packages is is used. So you need to sharpen your skills very well  so that you could compete with others. It is not necessary that you will have to give three hours daily but make sure you practice at least 30 to 45 minutes per daily, starting from free resources like YouTube and geeks for geek.

Hope it helps!!
