most computer science degree takes 3 to 5 years. They are general enough so that you can pick up almost any specialty in a few months after that, but if you're starting both web dev AND computer programming, 6 months is absolutely nothing.

Remember software dev is not about assembling big pieces of codes given in a framework, it's about logic / control flow, data structure, architecture. Once you understand all that, you don't consider yourself a "web dev" or a "mobile app dev" anymore, but just a software developper.
