What is the difference between Computer Science and Information Technology?
Computer Science and Information Technology are similar programs of equal duration and similar cost. However, there are differences between the two programs. Most notable is the differing level of mathematics taught. TheComputer Science course focuses on software, with a technological and scientific bias. It prepares students for careers in areas such as software development, systems programming, systems administration, network management and technical support. Graduates have extensive skills in UNIX operating system and C++ and Java programming languages, which are the most in-demand skills sought by employers of software professionals. Local, wide area and inter-networking software skills are also developed in the course along with abilities in extensively used World Wide Web software techniques.
