Popis:	This paper describes research into student motivation and satisfaction with various computing majors on campus. A survey was administered to 422 computing majors and a different survey was administered to approximately 800 non-computing majors at Brigham Young University. The objective was to discover student understanding and expectations of the Computer Science, Information Systems and Information Technology programs on campus. Students within these majors were asked about their satisfaction and career expectations and non-computer majors were asked about their understanding of the computing majors. Motivations for selecting specific majors were explored. Recommendations are made for helping students select the most appropriate computing major for their needs.
