October 12 - October 18

Graduate coming to class has been postponed once more.
Had someone from career center come visit instead.
Alot of what she said was review for me because she covered most of the same stuff during student orientation.
Suprisingly alot of question asked during class so I didn't get to ask the one question I had which was if Google, Microsoft, Apple or some of the other major companies in IT sent representatives during the career fair on campus?
I guess I could look it up because she did say a list was kept somewhere.

Project management

7.A. Project management is used all the time in the IT industry so that's why it's important to be familiar with the terminology. The project management triangle where the center is quality with the sides of the triangles being "scope," "time," and "cost" is the main focus and everything you need to know in a nutshell. The really hard part is optimization.

Module 7.B Check out career service at CSUMB

I'd probably refer to the applying for graduate school if I go on to get my Master's or PhD.


Module 7.C. Manage your ITCD/CSIT degree like a project
