frequently asked questions
Do I have to be able to program to pursue a career in information technology?Programming is only one component of the information technology sector. Numerous information technology positions exist that do not directly involve software development and programming. In fact, the strongest projected growth areas in IT lie in systems analysis, systems integration and technology management roles. Rather than programming skills, these positions instead require a combination of technical knowledge and soft skills. Browse through the various career ideas for more information. Do I sign up for courses individually?If you are a full-time student, no. If you are a part-time student, yes. As a BCIT student enrolled in a full-time program, you are automatically loaded into your courses each term. You attend those classes together with a group of approximately 19 other students in a designated "set". Part-time studies students enroll in classes on a course by course basis in any given term. If you are a part-time studies student in pursuit of a particular credential, you will be subject to some conditions regarding the number of courses you will need to complete each term. Do you offer courses and programs covering computer hardware?We offer a part-time studies course, COMP 1045 preparing students for the the A+ Core Hardware and OS Technologies Certification exams. |
