COMPUTER & INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY PROGRAM:

The Bachelors of Science
in Computer & Information Technology is designed to prepare students for careers as IT
professionals. Our graduates hold positions as network administrators, applications programmers,
website developers, database architects, operations schedulers, and technical support
specialists, to name a few. Of particular interest to potential students who already have practical
IT experience should be the alignment of many CIT courses with industry certifications.
Consequently, students can simultaneously complete their major requirements and prepare
for industry certification exams. This further makes it possible for students to receive course
credit for certifications already earned.
