Get ready for a career in the booming IT sector. The Computing Studies and Information Systems (CSIS) program offers courses in system and networking concepts, programming languages and business courses, giving you a well-rounded set of skills that can apply to a variety of careers.
CSIS also offers an optional co-operative education component where you can take the skills you've learned in the classroom and apply them in an actual workplace. And, you get paid to do it! Co-op students typically earn around $5800-$9000 a semester, in addition to gaining invaluable experience for your resume.
If you want to pursue a degree, our academic advisors can help you choose the correct combination of courses that will transfer into programs offered by other post-secondary institutions.
By 2019, it is expected that there will be 182,000 information and communications technology jobs available in Canada, with over 15,500 of those positions in Vancouver (source: Information and Communications Technology Council, Labour Market Outlook 2015-2019). Don't miss out - apply for the Douglas College CSIS program today, or attend a free information session.
