I want to be a computer systems analyst but I don't know which major will help me achieve that. I keep hearing different things. What major would be best, Computer Information Systems or Computer Science? And would I need to minor or get any additional degrees with either? I really don't want to major in Computer Science so what other careers look promising with a CIS degree if not computer systems analyst?
Answer
Information systems, as an academic field, encompasses two broad areas: (1) acquisition, deployment, and management of information technology resources and services (the information systems function) and (2) development and evolution of infrastructure and systems for use in organization processes (system development).
The information systems function has a broad responsibility to develop, implement, and manage an infrastructure of information technology (computers and communications), data (both internal and external), and organization-wide systems. It has the responsibility to track new information technology and assist in incorporating it into the organization's strategy, planning, and practices. The function also supports departmental and individual information technology systems.
Computer science is a science with a primary focus of discovering new knowledge, with strong foundations in theory and selected application domains. This field is the basis for software engineering, just as chemistry forms the basis for chemical engineering or as physics forms the basis for electrical engineering. Examples include: theory of data structures, algorithms, programming languages, networks, operating systems, compilers, databases, architecture, artificial intelligence, robotics, and graphics.
So my answer would be Computer Information Systems.

Transfering info from 1 computer 2 another computer?

I have a new computer and a computer that is on the fritz. I need a way to get all word documents, music files, and pictures from the bad computer to the new one. What is the best way to do this? I have heard an external hard drive, but I do not have one. I have thought of a large zip drive, but I do not have one large enough. Maybe, is there a way to connect the two or something else? Thank you!
Answer
yah you're going to have to go buy an external hard drive assuming you have a lot of files that take up a lot of space. If you do not have that many files than a small thumb drive will do. I bought a 2 gig usb thumb drive for 15 $. You can buy an 8 gig for around 30$ these days on sale.
Hopefully your computer isn't too old and has usb 2.0. I had a laptop with usb 1.0 and it took forever to get files outa there. Goodluck!
