The major thrust of the CIT discipline is that it not only expands into support systems, but also covers other aspects of the business world. A mix of skills along with technical proficiency is important in real world applications. This degree will place greater emphasis on the knowledge of business fundamentals. A graduate of this program will have developed an appreciation of the connections between the real and the digital worlds. One goal of this major is to bridge the gap that exists between the technology and user of the technology with respect to understanding how computers and software applications can meet the needs of real life. The core courses in the CIT major will ensure students with the depth of knowledge in programming, networking, computer organization, web programming and mathematics. Each of the three concentrations are designed to help a particular sector of the business world, in particular the security of networks, optimization of business organization and data base management, and web design and programming.

This degree requires a minor. A minor in a related field is highly recommended.
