We are also home to the Ohio Cyber Range Institute, a virtual environment where participants can learn about cybersecurity and practice defending networks against threats of all kinds.

IT is one of the fastest growing fields and projected to grow much faster that other occupation fields. The Bureau of Labor & Statistics reports that media annual wages for the industry are $91,250. The University of Cincinnati has worked to create programs that empower students to learn and pursue the areas they find important. Students can choose to learn at different levels in different areas like cybersecurity, front-office technology, and business.

As a student, you will have the choice between two IT-focused areas, they are:

  • Back-office technologists, or those who have an IT degree, work on computer applications and computer hardware. Their workdays are filled with programming responsibilities or supporting the company’s mainframe, mobile applications and desktop computers.
  • Front-office technologists, or those who have an BIT degree, spend their time using “enterprise applications” — software programs, such as Microsoft Word and PowerPoint, or working on information technology-focused initiatives used by the company’s employees or customers.
Find the program that’s right for you.
