Bachelor of Science in Information Technology (BSIT)

The Bachelor of Science in Information Technology (BSIT) degree program is part of the Undergraduate Management Program degree cluster and is designed with four goals in mind:

• Provide students with the theoretical concepts necessary for success in industry.
• Give students hands-on experience using current technologies.
• Provide students with an employable skill set.
• Provide industry with highly trained and competent IT professionals.

Students in the BSIT program experience coursework in Database Design, Systems Analysis, Technical Infrastructure, Project Management, Information Systems Management, Telecommunications and various business courses.

As students approach their senior year, they select a concentration in systems design, infrastructure or software applications. The purpose of this concentration is to allow students the opportunity to apply the theory they have learned in their coursework with current technologies available in the work place. Students, therefore, acquire a valuable skill set that can be applied to their first day on the job.

The BSIT degree program combines fundamental business concepts with current technology. This allows students to solve complex business problems using the technology they have learned. Students can develop careers in systems analysis design, web development, network administration, web administration, systems programming and applications support. More importantly, the BSIT merges two ideologies that are at the heart of learning at Lawrence Tech: theory and practice. This has been proven to be the competitive edge most students seek when they embark upon their careers.
