I still have 4 years till I graduate with a bachelor in computer sciences.
I am already fluent in both english and arabic but I want to learn a new language before I graduate that will be of value in my career.
The problem is that I am yet to decide on a major but the fields that seem to draw me are (in order) 1-Security , 2-software development , 3-Network administration , 4-System administration
maybe I’ll end up in a hybrid of security and something else.
So it comes down to german, russian or chinese (mandarin).
Chinese gives me wider coverage and I can use it along with english in like 95% of asia (plus the chinese economy is really taking off and the government will have to take it’s stranglehold off the internet soon which will mean a huge need for a good workforce in the IT sector) .
Russian is a huge help to a security specialist.
Germany has a lot of security companies.
So what language would you recommend and why ?
Sorry for the long question.
