MAJOR NOTE to Advisors and Students:

The Information Technology Program is intended for students entering with Math Level 8 or above. If an incoming student is between Math Level 1-6, the student may be more successful and more timely for graduation in selecting the Information and Networking Technology (IN01) program instead, as it only requires MTH 140/165 to be completed math-wise. This Information Technology (IT01) program, in contrast, requires MTH 172 (Level 9) and MTH 160 (Level 7) to graduate.
