Hello
I am in my senior year in high school and I have to make my decision about college soon. I am currently applied to Penn State main campus and I will more than likely get in I think. At PSU I plan to major in information science and technology.
IST
Basically this is IT with a lot of business thrown in. I like it a lot and I think it would make a great career but I think I would sooner do CS. I want to do something in depth, with software. The problem with CS compared to this to me is that the job prospects are much better for the IST. I know I should pick what I enjoy but money is important to me too and IST grads seem to be doing very well.
The other day I recieved mail about a place called neumont university. neumont
They just won the CIO award for 2006. It seems to be a pretty progressive take on CS education and the starting salary is great. It seems great but I dont know if I could handle 3 years at a place that is 10 percent women , lol. I dont want to miss out on a good time during college. Does anyone go here? Are there other college kids from other universities in Salt Lake City?
Sorry If was rambling, but if anyone could opionions on either of these programs would help me out a great deal.
thanks.
