Majoring in languages makes no sense to me, unless you want to be
pigeonholed into one language for the rest of your life. Learn
concepts, not languages.
Driver development, game programming, etc, would be great -- as
continued education programs, like a master's. You have to learn how to
design and code software before these kinds of courses will do any good.
Just my opinion, since you asked.
