Which Computer or IT course is right for you?

IT now affects almost everyone around the world. Without it, you wouldn't be reading this website! An IT college will give you practical skills in designing software, websites or computer systems that meet an organisation's needs for data, research or communication.

Computer science degrees focus on problem solving across all areas of computing. Computer courses will give you a good understanding of how computers and technology work, and the latest knowledge and research in computers and IT.

Many IT degrees combine technical computer course skills with business understanding, as employers today often seek commercially-aware computer science graduates.
