I've worked as software engineer for the past 16 years. My degree was completely orthogonal - physics - although I took some software courses on the side. Never stopped my progress.

Finish your studies, and then find an employer. Do a few online courses if you feel you need to brush up on your skills.

Your degree is most valuable by existing, not being in any specific field.

There are of course position that can be quite strict from qualifications point of view, but don't let that stop you. There are many, many others.
