Bachelor's degree in Information Systems?
I'm a sophomore undergrad getting ready to major in Information Systems, and alot of ppl suggested getting a minor in Finance or General Business ( i dont like accounting). WHat do you guys recommend? I was worried about the job outlook and that they dont get paid as well. ( I live in the Washington DC Area) Is information systems a hard major..or is it very do-able? Can anyone who majored in I.Systems tell me what its like, and if its an enjoyable/rewarding field? I plan on going on to graduate school to get my masters in the future.

I would probably get a minor in business, but be aware that part of the information systems curriculum includes business, economics, and accounting classes. As far as the difficulty, I've heard that it is substantially easier than a computer science degree. If you're interested in creating business applications, then it's probably better to get a computer science degree, choose elective CS courses on database programming and design, and get a minor in business.

Should I get a bachelor's of science in psychology or a bachelor's in computer information systems (CIS)
Should I get a bachelor's of science in psychology or a bachelor's in computer information systems (CIS)?
Psychology is my passion, but I know it takes a lot of years, but I also enjoy computers and know I can do that but I'm scared that if I choose CIS I'll regret it later on for not choosing psychology, which is what I love to study. I know there aren't many opportunities with a bachelor's in psychology so I was planning to go for a master's also, but I know I won't be able to afford it without taking a loan and will take a long time and have heard that people have had high debt by the time they graduate. Also, don't you think psychologist earn a little for all the years they have to go to school where as someone in technology just has to get a bachelor's and can earn a lot. However, I also know that some psychologist do make a lot of money, but don't they have a phD or can someone with a master's also earn a lot. I am really passionate about psychology so do you think its possible to earn a lot if I try really hard and if I do how long will it take me to start making good money? I'm so confused which is why I think I should go into CIS, but think I'll regret it. I want to make a lot of money, but I also want to be happy since I'm going to have to do it for the rest of my life. Also, psychologist study rats and I do not like the sound of that, but I love to study about people and how we think and all that good stuff. Please help any answers will be greatly appreciated! Okay so If I go for psychology is the University of Phoenix a good univ. or should I go somewhere else because I heard it won't get me into an accredited program.

Well how about doing both! Focus for undergrad now and take classes in psych and cis during the summer and winter sessions where you can in addition to the regular semesters. It may cost extra money but you will have 2 degrees to work with in the end which will make you far more employable then many other graduates. After school you can do work in cis to put away money for getting a masters in psychology. I would recommend you look into a masters in organizational psych or industrial psych with having an undergrad in cis. With both degrees you could pioneer a new area of research or something. Good luck and work hard

Psychology... Go with your heart. I worked in a computing related industry and it (technology) moves so quick....I got burnt out. Psychology would be rewarding, and the basic foundation doesn't change over time.... With I.T. you'll be lucky to take a year off and still think your skills are relevant. It's forever changing, but if you truly get a kick out of Computing and the growth of the industry, along with the change it goes through year in year out, go for it. Me, i'd go with Psychology.

Follow your passion, psychology! The pay for CIS has declined over time because all it takes is training, and as more people go into it, the less value they are worth. By the time you finish a degree, the pay for CIS may have declined further, and if you don't like it, you might end up in a career you don't like for less pay. On the other hand, if you love your work, you can derive satisfaction with less pay, if that is what comes about. Start out with the plan to get a bachelor's degree, and then you can evaluate the opportunities as you progress. There is research money available that professors can use to support graduate students, so you might be able to get tuition support for your advanced degree, including MS and/or PhD. If you decide that is not for you, then there will still be opportunities in education, career counseling, social work, etc., that you might find fulfilling. It is difficult to plot out a career if your only goal is to make the most money. Life is long, and you spend 1/3 of it at work, so it is better to enjoy your work and make enough money to live on, rather than to hate your work and spend a lot of money trying to forget it during your little free time.

If I were you, since you are going to school it will be difficult to find a job to fit your schedule. You may want to start out taking on web design work through Sitepoint.com (they have a design section), DesignOutpost.com (design contests) or basic freelance jobs on sites like RentACoder. These will help you build up your portfolio with real-life work so that when you do find a job in your area, you will have proof that you can bring to the table and show them you mean business.

how to become a systems anylst.. degree needed
how to become a systems anylst.. degree needed??
im thinking of a complete career change, i orginally got my associates in science in radiography (im an xray tech) and then immediately went on to a university to get my bachelors of science in health sciences... but my goal is to do something with computers, pref more along the lines of systems analyst, networking, setting up new networks/computers for companies, managing information systems, etc... i have no formal education in computers, but can say that i know id be good at and enjoy the job. i was originally looking to go get my masters degree in information systems or technology somewhere, but they dont offer it anywhere near where i live which means id have to move and pay out of state tuition and grad programs are very expensive. my other option that i just started to consider is this: there is a community college in my state that offers a computer technology degree, not EXACTLY an managing info systems degree, but offers courses on basic networking, programing, microsoft.... operating systems, java, linux.... so is it worth it for me to go get a masters in info systems, or would i be alright just taking this basic courses at a community college and doing an internship/getting a job. i already have a bachelors degree... so could i just take the comm college courses (which would be alot cheaper, although prob not as good of courses as at a grad school) or do i need to move and pay all the money to get my masters.... what would be my best bet???

You need to be a holder of the Bachelor of Science in Computer Science or Information Technology to pursue a career in any computer field. BUT since you mentioned you want to go in line with computer networking, BS INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY is the perfect course for you. BS IT simply handles almost everything, from programming languages, web development, database administration, systems administration, and most specially computer networking. (Cisco). My advise is to finish this degree first, and get a CCNA CERTIFICATION. (Cisco Certified Network Associate). Instead of pursuing a masteral degree, why not set your money aside for the CISCO certifications which has different levels, CCNA being the first level and CCIE being the highest one. (Cisco Certified Internetwork Expert). You cannot be a network administrator without this certifications. God Bless!

Some Ivy League universities (Yale, for instance) enrolls students in the Ph.D. program. If the student leaves the program after completing the necessary work, but before completing the Ph.D. degree, s/he receives an M.A. Otherwise you need to search by program and university. All don't follow the same norms.

Yes the Ivy League schools have Master's Degree Programs. You need to look under the MBA programs because they list what majors there are. For instance most MBA programs cover Accounting, Computer/IT, Management, HR Management. PhD programs also cover these also.

A lot of top private universities choose not to offer terminal master's degree programs other than MBAs, although they do give master's degrees en route to the PhD to their PhD students (usually after one or two years). I doubt any of the Ivy League schools offer any programs in accounting - they tend to focus on more "academic" type subjects.

Am i qualifying for patent bar exam?
I have bachelor degree in literature and art and master degree in information systems management. I'm interested in applying for law school and taking patent bar although i can't get into law school. At graduate schoo, i took more than 40 units of software engineeting classes and have more than 5 yrs of working experience in software engineering area. can anybody tell me if i'm still qualifying for taking patent bar exam? Thanks! What if I go to law school and pass bar exam. Do I still need to take extra classes to meet requirement to be patent lawyer?

No, you have to be a lawyer to take the patent bar exam, not an engineer alone.
2
In all states you have to go to law school (or do an intern program, which is more trouble than its worth for 90% of people) Before you can take the bar exam. So you need to pick and apply to law schools, you need to take the LSAT test also....as long as you score well on the lsat and got good grades in college , finding a law school that will take you will not be an issue.....I don;t know why you say you cannot get into law school....I dropped out of highschool in 10th grade, spent several years with various addictions, and am just completing my ba to get in, and will have my choice of schools (albeit not harvard or yale, but beggars cannot be choosers)
3
If you mean the U.S. Patent "bar exam", you don't have to be a lawyer or go to law school to take it. You do need an engineering or science degree or convince someone at the patent office that you qualify under one of the exceptions. Its not clear to me that you qualify. With some hunting, you cand find the requirements at www.uspto.gov
