If programmimg is your thing, I suppose that's a good course, but in all reality, if you're looking to run a network, that $hit isn't gonna do much good for you. I know too many Systems Administrators with degrees who don't know their ass from a hole in the ground. Sure, they can program an application that can do just about anything you want it to, but ask them to do some creative routing on a router or setup something as simple as a Microsoft Exchange server and they're complete and utter morons. When the pressure's on, a network needs someone who can think on their feet and make stuff start working again, not someone who has to code and compile an application to make themselves feel useful. Definitely if you're going to take this course, which you're encouraged to do from me, just make sure that in your spare time you get lots of hands on with server level software applications and concepts. Don't limit yourself to what they are gonna teach you.

I'm not going for the networking section, the multemedia and design section is what I am going into.

Then that sounds like a pretty good program, however, take my advice and broaden your horizons in the areas I talked about. There's nothing worse than a developer who only knows how to use one application and can't figure out how to plug in their new optical mouse and install the drivers. It happens.....trust me......

Ok thanks ! Yeah I am going to be taking some summer courses so I will look into new things. Thing is that it is a new program, apparently a bachelor of IT is new so I dunno.
