im thinking of a complete career change, i orginally got my associates in science in radiography (im an xray tech) and then immediately went on to a university to get my bachelors of science in health sciences... but my goal is to do something with computers, pref more along the lines of systems analyst, networking, setting up new networks/computers for companies, managing information systems, etc... i have no formal education in computers, but can say that i know id be good at and enjoy the job. i was originally looking to go get my masters degree in information systems or technology somewhere, but they dont offer it anywhere near where i live which means id have to move and pay out of state tuition and grad programs are very expensive. my other option that i just started to consider is this: there is a community college in my state that offers a computer technology degree, not EXACTLY an managing info systems degree, but offers courses on basic networking, programing, microsoft....

  1. Commerce degree in IT is what you're looking for.


  2. You need to be a holder of the Bachelor of Science in Computer Science or Information Technology to pursue a career in any computer field.

    BUT since you mentioned you want to go in line with computer networking, BS INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY is the perfect course for you. BS IT simply handles almost everything, from programming languages, web development, database administration, systems administration, and most specially computer networking. (Cisco).

    My advise is to finish this degree first, and get a CCNA CERTIFICATION. (Cisco Certified Network Associate). Instead of pursuing  a masteral degree, why not set your money aside for the CISCO certifications which has different levels, CCNA being the first level and CCIE being the highest one. (Cisco Certified Internetwork Expert).

    You cannot be a network administrator without this certifications. God Bless!

  4. All of that would be different paths branching off of Computer Science. You learn lots of programming languages and then start taking the path you want to pursue. Yours would be networking and installation.

  5. I recommend Cisco Systems too, they are the top IT training school right now. I recently got my CCNA from there and I highly recommend it.
