Reviews of MS in Information Technology graduates:


Tzar Umang Studied BS Biology and MS in Information Technology (slightly different course) at Saint Louis University , Baguio City Graduated: 2007 About my college education: How my education track turn out is more interesting than my actual courses. Basically I was taking BS Biology for my Medical Course in the future, during my Biology years I enjoyed it so much because of the research culture, we are nurtured around importance of discovering things and finding our niche all through out the course, for me I was fascinated with water and fishes, that is why during my last years on Biology I took aquatic biology, which I really enjoyed, next is we are also asked to get foreign language which is Latin its a bit hard yet enjoyable. But even if I enjoyed the whole course, I just can't put into heart the idea of me becoming a medical doctor. I followed what I really desire for which is IT, I was to take another BS degree for IT but I was advised to try out the graduate program entrance exam for Masters, luckily I passed it, so I took MS Information Technology and now on my thesis, the only thing I can say is that the very core of the program will really guide you to be the best in the industry, you become more

resourceful and a good problem solver which is definitely very handy when you are in the industry, and besides SLU has all the facility you need to train yourself with and be competitive when you are already on the real world. My current job: IT Director Perfectly related to BS Biology and MS in Information Technology

Am I using what I learned in college: For MS Information Technology yes, right now with my current position and function on my company, I am using my Enterprise Solutions and Services Management Engineering knowledge for our clients. How long did it take to find a job after graduation: Basically I was not able to practice my BS Biology course, but I was immediately hired during my 2nd year on MS IT by a Manila based Fashion Company as their IT Consultant. Right now I partly own an IT Company which is HIVE Inc. Do I recommend studying BS Biology and MS in Information Technology: Yes, right now there is a high demand for IT developers and it will still last for the next 10 years
