Introduction to Information Technology Engineering

 IT, which stands for Information Technology, is a discipline that can cover all academic disciplines, but is operationally interdisciplinary, between the computer and the electrical engineering industry, which includes production, processing, storage and The supply of information that is linked to computer discussions, the issue of information management and its processes is a series of discussions in the field of electrical engineering and industry, and especially the telecommunication trends, relates to information and data.

 An IT student should have background information in different areas. For example, a person who wants to use this technology in e-commerce should know if a person who wants to use IT in distance education should be familiar with the methods of instruction, and the expert in the field must have a computer basis, in other words the core of this field is actually the core of the computer engineering field, which has been added to the management stuff. 


Understanding and knowing IT course and fields of that

 

Computer Networks

This field of IT is considered to be a branch of computer and telecommunications engineering throughout the world, and has a longer-lasting background than other information technology fields. Computer network professionals are able to carry out various activities relying on their backgrounds in their field of study and can do a lot in different occupations. Among the applied knowledge of this field, one can mention important issues such as the design, configuration and implementation of computer networks and network programming. Security in computer networks is one of the other issues that are in the form of training related to this field. Computer networking engineers will also be able to collaborate with other engineers like e-commerce in setting up their business. Creating programs on a global or web network and implementing distributed systems (such as distributed databases or distributed platforms) is one of the other activities that is educated to the student's experts in this field. 

 

E-commerce and multimedia systems

E-commerce, using computer networks, simplifies and speeds up business transactions at its various stages, such as design, production, purchase, sale and delivery. The term "e-commerce" includes any business and management interaction that is made using information and communication technology. The goal of this course is to provide a good understanding of computer-related technologies, skills in designing and manufacturing multimedia systems for network-wide distribution, and knowledge of tools and modalities for changing business and management tasks through electronic transactions. Master's degree in e-commerce provides graduates with technical knowledge, creative skills and business ability in order to exploit the huge potential of marketing in computer networks.

 

Information technology

 The IT field transmits knowledge to the audience, in which information collection, use and transfer methods are available. The study, design, construction, commissioning, maintenance of hardware and software systems, collecting, organizing, categorizing and transmitting information are the most important goals that IT engineering pursues. The most important category of graduates of this field is the correct use and timely use of information. In the era we are in, information technology is one of the major axes of development in the world. Today, the achievements of information technology have been so integrated with people's lives that stopping in its path causes disruption to society and even the well-being of people. Hence, many countries have taken widespread efforts to publicize the use of information technology that academic ICT education is one of these. The Master of Science (MSc) in Information Technology completes project management to provide appropriate solutions to complex organizational issues.

 

Management of Information Systems and Information Security 

Given the increasing dependence on information and communication technologies in e-government and the dangers we face with them, such as malicious programs of viruses, intruders and thieves, Dos and DDos attacks, and ... the need for a personalized solution that can prevent such risks is very felt to be able to recover systems quickly, if prompted. According to Gartner, the IT industry has grown most in 2005, confirming the importance of information security in companies and organizations.

nature

The computer has two different hardware and software components. The physical and palpable components of a computer are called hardware circuits and electronic boards. The software is a component that is unobtrusive to the computer. Software is the application and data that tell the computer what to do. A software engineer learns how to design and plan, test, and evaluate the final software, and ultimately document it. Thus, a computer repair technician isn’t a hardware engineer and an operator is not a software engineer. "Software is in fact the soul of a computer that provides identity for hardware, and is essentially a program that is made to use hardware.
The software can be categorized into a general course, which includes: system software and applications. System software is programs that the computer requires to activate or offer service, and this is due to the computer system makers, most notably operating systems, utility programs, and language interpreters. Applications are also programs that the user himself writes, or software companies make and sell them for sale. Such programs typically do not have the generality of system programs and are written for various engineering, scientific, commercial, educational, and recreational or design fields. "
"Bachelor's degree in hardware engineering examines hardware design, hardware control, and computer networks. For example, a hardware engineer can design hardware that works with ICs, works with computers, or it will use computer gates and ultimately can design integrated digital circuits, which, of course, will be dedicated to this part of the hardware at the undergraduate and postgraduate level. "
 

Bachelor's Degree Approaches


Bachelor's degree in computer science has two trends in hardware and software, but these two trends in undergraduate studies do not differ significantly.
1. "The trend of hardware involves educational, research and industrial activities in parts, boards, equipment and, ultimately, computer systems at different scales, and one of its important branches is computer architecture (design and manufacture of computer).
2. "The purpose of the trend is computer software, education and research in the field of programming languages, different operating systems and the design of various algorithms." 

 

Job prospect, job market, income


Due to the increasing expansion of the computer world today, computer technology is felt more than ever before. Today, a computer engineer will never face unemployment if he or she is interested. Especially software engineers have more job opportunities and do not need much equipment to handle. Job opportunities in this field are so wide and diverse that not only graduates of this field can easily enter the market, but students of the last two years of this field can enter the market and work. For hardware engineers, it is also possible to work in companies manufacturing parts and devices, and industrial centers - highly productive, and in terms of income level, with due regard to their knowledge and perseverance, they are ideally acceptable. On the other hand, given the ever-increasing use of the Internet, the field of work on this topic is also very much possible. 


The state needs of the country for this field at present


The field of computer that has led to the globalization of information and communications is the subject of the day and the future, to the point where, in the next 10 years, people in the developed countries will be dependent on the Internet as much as they are dependent on power. According to the explanation, the growing trend of computer use in the daily life of work and job opportunities for graduates of this field is provided in the form of software companies, manufacturers of components, industrial centers, manufacturing companies, companies and service providers, Educational centers and other places, to give chance for working. Paying attention to the slow progress of Iran towards the global computer community in recent years, there is a need for sophisticated and creative engineers in this field. The growing use of computers in public and private circles, widespread use of the Internet and related fields With it, the provision of education and e-commerce has all come together to give a clear perspective to the future of the field, so that activists will have a clear and secure future in this regard. The only concern is the software sector that Iranian creative engineers have to develop various and effective software to not only be a consumer.
