Technology is advancing every day. That is one of the reasons why I chose to major in information technology. What jobs would be open to a person with an info. tech. degree ,and would this soon be a competitive field ? if not already.

Your degree can open the door to many more opportunities in the technology. If you want to pursue other areas in that field, like app development or the User experience field, all you would have to do is take an additional course or maybe even additional certification. Ultimately my advise is that you are on a good track in terms of future employment.

Information technology is a great field that can offer many opportunities! As many may have told you, you could always go the more technical route and mold your education around the more technical aspects of the field, such as a programmer, data scientist, engineers, and the systems administrator.

As someone who was also interested in Technology but didn't want to take the intensive programming classes, I'd like for you to also consider the non-technical opportunities associated to Information Technology. They are just as interesting in the IT world as the technical jobs. Such as:

• User Experience - A growing field, in my opinion. User Experience designers usually help programmers making technology more intuitive and helps involve the human usability factor to those who are creating the technology. A *TON* of big software names are looking for User Experience designers to help make sure that the product they are releasing are usable to their customers.
• Business Analysts - Business analysts, or BAs, are the bridge between a company implementing a new technology and a company understanding how to use the new technology on their daily basis. They are usually people who are very well-versed in the business process, and helps to make sure that a new program or piece of technology works with the business needs. They are also integral for input when it comes to making sure that the new technology fits with the audience. From an education standpoint, you can major in any other field with your IT interest, and there will always be jobs (ie: if you study Finance and IT, then you might be able to get into a company as a Financial Business Analyst to make sure that the new programs account for everything).
• Customer Success - A lesser known but super important aspect of a business. Customer Success teams usually come in to a client's site to ensure that the client has a smooth transition with the new product/technology. Because they are essentially product experts, they are incredibly well versed with how the technology works, and use their "best practice" knowledge so that it is better accepted at client sites.
• Technical Training - Technical trainers have to have a wide range of IT knowledge, and usually deal with the end users who will be using the new program/technology in their daily lives. This means you have to keep up to date with the latest workings of IT, and make it relatable to your audience.
