Nicole Mishler

"This program allows us to work in the IT field with real world scenarios and hands on experience. You are able to do everything from programming, to hardware repairs, and setting up networks. You learn how these components all work together and how you are able to make this happen. You complete an internship which allows you to work outside the classroom and to learn more about a certain company. I love this major for all these reasons and more."
