| 857432 | 2010-02-11 22:33:00 | Hey, I was looking to do a bachelor of computers and was wondering where you have studyed computers/bachelor? Aut or Unitec/ames(or what else) Aut is a university and unitec is not but is that a reason to pick one over the other? Because employers prefer some one that does architecture went to unitec over AU, because its more practical. |

Which is determined by which are of IT you area you A)Have a talent for B)Are interested in. Which is it? Networking? Programming? Website development? etc..... |

Will be easier and will get you into the work force sooner. A degree in Compsci will involve a lot of coding. Math is very important. Why don't you have a playing and learn with C# or Java or something and see how you like it... |

| 857440 | 2010-02-12 05:25:00 | oh I Just didnt know what you meant. Like you have a talent at art and singing I Just didnt know how you would have a talent with computers. | Blackandblue (14231) | ||
| 857441 | 2010-02-12 05:43:00 | AUT isn't to bad but you must fight your way through a whole lot of programming papers even if you don't want to do software development. Also you get made to do random Communications papers to try and get you writing essays and giving presentations about things you really don't care about. :groan: Most of the lecturers are quite good, although their are some that fall in the category of if you can't do teach (and fail at that too :( ). Be-aware the school itself can be rather disorganised with somethings.:sleep I've gotten though most of their BCIS and overall I have learnt a lot of relevant stuff, but also a lot of useless stuff I'm slowly forgetting as will never apply. :illogical If your no good with maths good luck with networking papers and subnetting! |
