Education Path
In order to become a computer programmer you would have to have at least an associate degree in computer science or computer programming. Some classes that you can take in high school that can help you are calculus, computer programming, technical writing, and trigonometry/advanced algebra. In college you should take the required college entrance classes.
Training Schools and Colleges
One college you could attend to become a computer programmer is the Milwaukee Area Technical College. I chose this school because it is still in Wisconsin. This college is public and is in an urban setting, so it's in the city. It's also a 2 year tech school. The student to faculty ratio is 12:1.
