How to become a computer and information systems manager?
Be healthy
I am currently studying computer science, I am a junior. But I realized that being a software developer isn't really working for me. So I was thinking of taking the path to become a computer and information systems manager. So what exactly should I do now?
Answer
There are three basic computer degrees that 4 year schools are offering.
1. Computer Science - This sounds like what you have been studying and have decided you don't like.
2. Computer Information Systems - this would include other majors with similar names like Info Sys. These jobs are technical jobs in computer administration, networking, computing security, etc.
3. Management of Information Systems - this degree is really not a computer technical degree but a business degree that gives you business skills to manage other people in IT.
If you are in computer science and want to bail out of that but still do technical computer work you want to go with the Computer Information Systems (CIS) route. You should be able to shift over most of your credits without too much drame or expense.
The Management of Information Systems (MIS) degree is one that I have seen more recently and the general impression I get is that this degree does not have the value of the other two. It has almost no technical IT courses in the course listing. I have been told that the reason schools are offering this degree is that managment principles changes very seldom. This means that they can use the same courses, instructors, books, class outlines, etc in this major. In a technology degree there are always new languages, new operating systems and new terminology which makes it hard for a school to keep up. So I would not say that it is a worthless degree but I'm interested in technology and not just managing people.
With a CIS degree you could do:
Computer Technician, Service Center Coordinator, Help Desk Staff, Storage Administrator, Network Administrator, Systems Administrator, Systems Engineer, Enterprise Administrator, Active Directory Administrator, Exchange and Messaging Administrator, Backup Administrator, Disaster Recovery Specialist, Database Administrator, Computing Security Specialist, Corporate IT Acquisition Specialist and Data Center Administrator, just to name a few.
Best Wishes!
