What can someone do with a degree in Computer Information Systems?
Question: I graduated from Devry University in 2002 with a BS in Computer Information Systems. If I am not into programming, what would you suggest that someone can go into a career field with this type of degree? I am interested in hardware and software support, Internet support, Web page development, Help desk. Any other suggestions?
Answer:
Have you not worked since you got your degree in 2002?
With the degree and some experience you should be able to have a job as a Network Administrator, System Administrator or LAN Administrator. You should be able to have a very well paying job and a good position.
Forget helpdesk stuff. You should be managing servers, workstations and entire networks for companies.
If you you have this degree and aren't working in the IT field then you are selling yourself short.
You should also work on Microsoft certifications, CISCO certifications and learn Email server administration and database administration like MS SQL server and MS Exchange Server. Get your Windows 2003 MCSE and start learning Cisco routers and switches and you will really be doing good. Keep up the good work.
Buy yourself one really nice blue or black suite for interviews and get a decent resume together.
