About I want to work at NASA one day, am I taking the right steps

I want to work at NASA one day, am I taking the right steps?
I am currently in community college, I have my AA degree and I'm getting ready to transfer to Fresno State University, I want to major in Computer Engineering. I'm not a genius nor have I ever been but with a lot of studying I've gotten better at math and science, my grades are good. I'm not aiming to be an astronaut either because that would probably be near to impossible but I conform myself with working at NASA, I just want to know if this major will help me get a job there, thanks.

Don't limit your self to just one organization, since many people apply to NASA everyday (that question gets asked here daily). Find out at the source - http://nasajobs.nasa.gov/ Just remember, many apply, few are hired.

You would need a minimum of a masters. Don't count on NASA. It's on its last legs after being gutted by Obama. Pray for change.
3 :
Check out their job site to find out who they are hiring. You'd be more likely to get a job for a NASA contractor than NASA itself; NASA doesn't actually hire very many people. Most of the people who work there are on short term contracts of some sort.
