| You don't *necessarily* need a masters or Ph.D. Many people make a
living as programmers with Bachelor's degrees.
It really depends on your goals, time available for schooling, your
dream job, funds, etc.
I would say a degree in computer science and/or engineering, and the
skills to match are a prerequisite. Then take it from there...
