    Probably means it's a good course then! :laugh: Seriously: you are going to take "somebodies" word for actual values of tuition fees? Check them yourself! They may even vary from college to college...

      I prefered the "Super Villainy For Fun and Profit" course myself! ;)

                My degree was called Information Technology when I did it. It was a mixture of programming (including assembly), electrical engineering, communication theory, other stuff. Surely what a course is called is irrelevant, it is what the content is that matters and different places will use different names for the same content or the same name with different content.

                I agree with that. You should get the classes which are taught in each case and see what course better suits your needs.

                  I study computer programming in a government scholarship for 2 years All we study in that scholarship is all computer programming, just a little basic in some computer, database, networking etc. I'm going to enroll next school year as a freshmen. There are 3 course that I want ComEng, IT, ICT I think Computer Engineer is the most difficult, so I'm thinking the what is better between that two ICT or IT

                  I did a degree in Information Systems back in 1988. The course was mainly programming, database design and user interface design(somehow the sociology department at the University also managed to squeeze in some of the pointless theoretical history of organisation philosophy) - this was before the days of the worldwide web. It served me well and if you can, ensure that the course you take covers those three areas - whatever it is named does not count for much.

                      I think that's what Richard is saying: google probably won't help - you need to look at the specific school and see what the courses it offers involve.

                          I guess it would depend on your interests. I took up IT on a university from our province and it pretty much covered the essential things with regards to computers. But it focused more on programming. Never heard of ICT though. I'm not sure if the curriculum also applies on those reputed computer schools (STI, AMA, etc) here in our country. I guess it differs from school to school. Try to ask for the subjects for the courses and see if it fits your interests.

                            Mine was called "Computer Science" (well, it started off as "Maths and Computer Science" but I discovered that I hated the Maths side after all and failed all the maths exams at teh end of year one) That dates me! (Get it in before someone else does: "Well, it's not as if anyone else would")

                                Hey, I am an ICT undergraduate student in India. The program is rigorous. As the name itself suggests, ICT - Information and Communication Technology, you'll be taught courses from both the streams i.e. Information Technology and Communication Technology. So you will definitely have more knowledge than your peers but you'll have to put in a little more efforts.

                                  Don't lose sight of the fact that the main purpose of what you study is to make a living. The Computer Engineering degree will probably create more opportunities for you simply because it has the boardest scope.

                                    I'm not sure where you're studying, but in the states, I attended both a private and public university, and in each case, tuition per hour was the same for all subjects (though some might have lab fees and the like). Look into it.

                                      My recommendation, check the subjects on all of them and choose the one that fits better what you want to do or learn.

                                        I was thinking about writing some math articles on CP. I could explain the math and show some code examples where that math is applied (or some programmer at Microsoft already applied it for you). What's a better way to learn something than by writing about it yourself? I might even start to like math in the process. Could be convenient since I still have five other math courses and some AI and security classes which all use math quite extensively... So far I failed the course (re-exam next week) and banged my book against the wall in frustration damaging both the book and wall... Yeah, I'll enjoy writing those articles...

                                        It's an OO world.

                                        public class Sander : Lazy<Person>{
                                        public void DoWork(){ throw new NotImplementedException(); }
                                        }

                                          I had to do a re-write of the one I got zero in in order to stay on the course - even though I dropped the match and went straight computing. In those days, that meant they posted you a copy of the exam paper you had sat and said "try again - post your answers back by the end of next month and don't fail this time"
