An Information Technology major emphasizes systems integration, network administration, IT project management, business systems analysis, and the operational side of computing. IT differs from Computer Science in that it leans toward applying existing technology to solve business problems rather than designing new computing systems from first principles.
IT graduates often start in help-desk, systems-administration, or junior-network-engineering roles and can grow into senior infrastructure, IT-management, cloud-architecture, or solutions-architect tracks. The major pairs well with vendor certifications (CompTIA, Cisco, Microsoft, AWS, Azure).
