I'm kinda new to the programming world but have taken a few python courses so I actually understand computer langauges and develop my skills. i was just wondering if I were to get a bachelors degree in Data Science or just certificaion, can I use that towards a path in software engineering or do companies like to see a different set of skills for software devlopment?
