If you are considering a career in an IT-related field, our career focus areas could lead you to an area of study that best fits your desired career path.

Kaplan University is also pleased to introduce two additional career focus areas for undergraduate degree programs as well as new postbaccalaureate and graduate certificate programs in information technology. The information systems management career focus area is one more way for you to personalize your Bachelor of Science in Information Technology. It emphasizes client and systems specifications, project management, systems analysis and design, and the technical innovation of information systems.

The help desk administration career focus area is one more way for you to personalize your Associate of Applied Science in Information Technology. This career focus area emphasizes personal computer configuration and maintenance, system software installation, troubleshooting techniques, installation and administration of network operating systems, and desktop administration.

If you already have a bachelor's degree, our Master of Science in Information Technology, postbaccalaureate certificate programs, and graduate certificate program may be just what you need to help take your career to the next level.

If you already have an associate’s degree, consider the fast track option with our advanced start program in information technology, which may help you earn your online degree in as little as 2 years.†
