Information Technology

Major

Two students sit at computers coding

This is Information Technology at Goshen College

Information technology is the work of making technology actually useful to the people and organizations that depend on it: choosing and building the systems, connecting them to how the work really gets done, and keeping the whole thing running.

The discipline is bigger than just fixing computers. It involves understanding what an organization is trying to do, designing the systems and databases that support it, protecting the data moving through them, and managing the projects that get new technology into people’s hands without breaking what already works. Every hospital, bank, school, and manufacturer runs on decisions someone in IT made.

At Goshen you can study it as a 47-credit major or add it as an 18 to 21-credit minor. The major is built as a 34-credit technology core plus one concentration, so you finish with a second area of strength: a business concentration if you want to work between the technology and the organization, or a programming concentration if you want to go deeper into building. The course catalog lists the current requirements for both paths.

What IT professionals actually do

  • Design the systems. Databases, networks, and interfaces built around what people actually need to do, not what the technology makes convenient.
  • Protect what’s in them. Networking and security coursework here prepares you to sit for an industry-standard certification exam, in networking and again in security.
  • Deliver the project. Scope, budget, schedule, and the human side of getting a team of people to finish something real.

Major or Minor: Which One Fits You?

Both teach you to make technology work inside a real organization. The major is a full bachelor’s degree for students who want IT to be the career. The minor is a shorter credential you add to another major, for students whose field is about to be reshaped by technology and who want to be the one making those decisions.

The IT Major: 47 credits, B.A.

  • For students who want the job title to say technology.
  • The full arc: information systems, programming, databases, networking and security, operating systems, human-centered interface design, project management, and statistics, plus a concentration that takes you deeper into either business or programming.
  • Includes a required hands-on experience course, so every major finishes the degree having done the work somewhere real: an internship, a student-run business like the Java Junction coffee bar, applied work inside an organization, or a business process innovation project.
  • Grounded in the question of what technology should do, not only what it can do. Ethics, privacy, and the responsibility that comes with holding other people’s data are part of the coursework, not an add-on.
  • Qualifying students can begin taking Goshen MBA courses while still undergraduates, once they meet the credit-hour and GPA thresholds.

The IT Minor: 18 to 21 credits

  • For students who want technology to make a different job title far more valuable.
  • The working core: programming, databases, and networking and security, plus two upper-level choices you steer toward either technical depth or the management side.
  • Built to be added to any major, and usually finished without adding time to your degree.
  • Pairs especially well with business, accounting, communication, public health, biology, and the sciences. Any field where the data is growing faster than the people who can manage it.
  • Ask your academic advisor to map it against your current plan. It usually takes one conversation.

Not sure yet? Both paths start in the same first courses. You don’t have to decide before you arrive.
