Any type of graphic design or computer software classes will be helpful. It is important to take any type of basic computer class, if you are just starting out.
As long as you find a company to hire you. Computer programming jobs do not require degrees in computer science or software engineering. There are still many companies who will take electrical engineers and other "non-related" degrees.
"Schools including ITT Tech, Devry, and the University of Phoenix offer degrees in computer software development, though that is not to say standard and community universities do not offer such tracks."
Software jobs are available for people with computer programming degrees. Job salaries vary by type of job.
All of the major colleges in the state of Indiana have degrees in computers and computer software. These include Indiana University, Purdue University, the University of Notre Dame, Butler and Indiana State.

A lot of school current offer degrees in software development and video games. Although computer science is a good background to get into the field, I would recommend going to a school that specializesin software development or video games.
A Bachelor of Science in Computer Science focuses on things like programming and coding. A Bachelor of Engineering in Computer Systems focuses the design of computer and software systems. The latter stresses design and the former stresses implementation.
Bachelor of Computer Science is a type of bachelor's degree, usually awarded after three years of collegiate study in computer science. In general Computer Science degrees emphasize the mathematical and theoretical foundations of computing, rather than teaching specific technologies that may quickly become outdated. Computer Engineering (Computer Systems Engineering) is a discipline that combines both Electrical Engineering and Computer Science. Computer engineers usually have training in electrical engineering, software design and hardware-software integration instead of only software engineering or electrical engineering.
