Please, Need help with choosing a field in CS

[kelvin]

Hi. I am having some trouble with choosing a field in CS. I am currently a junior in UCSD as a CS major. I am not sure which field I should get into. For now, I am learning to webpage/server/networking, because it seems to be the most practical, which can help me find a good job easily after graduating. Since I really need to decide what technical elective courses to take, I would like to decide what field I will major in. Please give me some advice on various fields and how to make this decision. I want to get into a field that is practical and useful, so that finding a good job would be easy.

Thank you very much.

When it comes to computer science - knowing all the code is one thing that can get you any job in the world (ie. C++, Pearl, etc) - but what interests you? Do you want to help cybercrime by being a hacker? Helping companies with Network security? In the end most fields in Computer Science are practical - and the only reason I ended up dropping out was because the thought of me staying in an office for the rest of by days doing programming or the like just didn't do it for me.
