Bachelor of Science in Information Technology [top]

This BSIT program is specifically designed to provide an avenue of advancement for students with associate's degrees in a technology discipline such as networking (e.g.: Moorpark College's Associate in Science Degree in Computer Network Systems Engineering). This new program gives the student the opportunity to complete a Bachelor of Science degree in Information Technology. The course work will provide a foundation in mathematics, programming, networking, databases, web, computer architecture and information systems. The BSIT sits between a BS in Computer Science and a BS in Management Information Systems, emphasizing the fastest growing segments of the both: Web Systems, Databases, and Networks. For a foundation, the BSIT program draws from both camps: mathematics, science, and computer programming from Computer Science, and business organization and project management from Management Information Systems. From there it adds depth in Web Programming and Technology, Database Theory and Design, and Data Communications and Networking, while allowing for further depth in these or related areas such as e-Commerce, Computer Security, and Multimedia. Students entering this program are expected to have already attained an associates degree in a technology area (or the equivalent), with at least 30 units that are 鈥淕E certified鈥� for the CSU system, including courses in: Statistics, First Course in a Laboratory science (Physics, Chemistry, or Biology), First course in a programming language (such as C, Java, or C++), Computer Architecture and Assembly Language.

Careers

Potential career option for BSIT graduates include: Computer Systems Integrator, Computer Systems Manager, Information Technology Designer, Information Technology Support, Database Systems Manager, Database Systems Designer, Data Communications Analyst, Network Manager, Network Designer, Web Technology Manager, Web Technology Support.
