If you're not interested in the "tech industry" you might still be able to leverage your skills into IT

Exactly what I was thinking. Computer Science/Engineering are fundamental fields of study now, like learning math, because computers are everywhere. You don’t strictly need to build apps for a living just like a math degree doesn’t limit you to being a mathematician. There are many companies that need someone who can help the boomers manage some computer shit that might not even be difficult for anyone born after 1990.
