There's quite a lot of opportunities in IT. There's a few other IT-related degrees out there like Computer Science and Software Engineering that have different program requirements which might suit you better or worse depending on what you want to go in to and what your interests are.

need more information on what your wanting to do, but the IT sector is experiencing a huge boom in the coming years with many grad's commanding 70k+, with some even commanding 100k+ that graduated last year.

For IT, employers look for qualifications as well as certifications. I know an institute that offers Diploma in IT + Microsoft MCITP certification in just 6 months. It's called MGIT. After 6 months you will receive up to 1 year of credit transfer at uni, plus you'll have a MCITP certification which would really help your employment and salary in the future. This is a good way Look it up online and see if it helps you =D

Students study information & communications technology (ICT) for a variety of reasons - to be a computing professional, to use ICT to be a better scientist, or to empower themselves to better understand the technology behind many of today's careers. Increasingly, employers see an ICT qualification as a sign of academic well-roundedness. ICT drives innovations such as the human genome project, vaccine research, environmental modelling, and games design. Emerging areas include electronic security, earth simulation (related to the mining boom) and bioinformatics. Independent job market surveys show that demand for graduates is escalating, along with salaries. Industry is concerned about a shortage of talent.

This is something I posted in another topic, but It applies here also;

Next year I plan to do either a Bachelor of Information Technology or a Bachelor of Computer Science. Whilst in uni, I plan to do a couple of CompTIA courses, maybe MCSE or MCP and CCNA. Having a uni degree gets your foot in the door, normally helps you jump to the front of the pack when applying for a job. It won't always get you the job though, having the other certifications under your belt proves your experience in specialised areas.

I plan on working towards network administration, so naturally Cisco is important, and in addition I plan on doing CompTIA Network+.

Also take note that in the IT sector, most professionals will have these or similar certifications. The more education you can get the better. Remember that in IT, there are constant changes, you have to be proactive and partake in regular learning from the internet and other sources in your own time too.

Not that I can really talk because I'm still in high school, but these are the things I've learnt from others.

CCNA, RHCE, MCITP won't make you stand out, if anything you will blend in more. You don't want to turn into this girl

(oh and Network+ is rubbish)
