B.Sc. IT (Information Technology): Career Scope & Details

   

B.Sc. IT (Information Technology): Career Scope & Details – Bachelor of science in Information Technology is a three year degree course after class 12 which only needs eligibility of 12th pass to get admission into.Many students get confused with B.Sc I.T and B.Sc Computer Science and cannot decide which one to choose.

I have done a year of B.Sc Computers and it involves alot of programming especially C language in the first year. Comparatively B.Sc I.T involves more of information retention,exchange,storage and execution.How well we store data is managed as information in a system is the work you will be handling after you complete your B.Sc I.T course.

B.Sc I.T vs Engineering

Both B.Sc I.T and B.Sc Computer Science has a similar syllabus to Computer Engineering as well as Information Technology Engineering.

Infact in America and other western countries,there is no such thing as Computer/I.T Engineering, as it is not considered an engineering course.It is a science course for which you get a Diploma/Degree.

Coming back to Engineering in India,it is 4 year course which is hard and also has other subjects like Communication engineering ,Electronics,Analog digital circuits etc which are extremely tough and not at all related to computers/IT at all.These make engineering way harder than B.Sc and not to mention engineering is one year longer than B.Sc

Courses after B.Sc I.T.

Even if you are not content with just your graduation degree of B.Sc IT,you can enroll for M.C.A which is Masters of computer application and this will give you an extra boost to your payscale as well as broaden your horizon and give you more job options.

Other options are an M.B.A or M.Sc in Computer Sciences.

Why should you choose B.Sc. I.T ?

Each and every company that has a database of clients and products needs an information technology operator to take care of managing the system to ensure smooth information transition between clients,servers and systems.

You can expect employment in all sectors of business like banking,financial institutions,technology startups,BPOs and much more.

Some of the topics you will learn:

  • Internet security
  • Management Informational systems
  • Ecommerce applications
