MIS/CS Jobs: What type of education...

[Avatar26]

I know there are quite a few people on the boards that work in technology fields. I am finally to the point where I can go back to school, and I was wondering if anyone had advice/insight into what would be a good emphasis for my schooling if I want to get a decent job when I get out. I have been looking more at systems analysis/administration, and I'm not sure if that's where I should be looking. Please, any comments/suggestions would help greatly!

I appreciate the input folks!

Systems analysis is more in between the techs and the execs. Suppose the accounting dept came to you saying that they want the payroll system to do this. You analyse their current system, research a new solution and then hire the techies to do the work. More management than tech stuff.

Sys Admin is more techie stuff.

Let me know if you have anymore questions
