Before I entered my poly, I was always thinking the money is in
Business and Architeture.
Business because every contract can be worth up to more than
$100,000 easily. Investments have the potential to bring in
millions of dollars.
Then when I took up IT in Poly, I find that what I learn is really
very useful and what the lecturers taught me was that everything I
learn can easily be applied in a Business Company.
If I end up being a web designer, I can easily get a $500 contract
or something?
Furthurmore, With the Java and Microsoft.net I would be learning, I
can apply those into the website would easily bring like a $20,000
contract? Not only that. If I am proficient in those field, I can
take up multiple projects at a time. Thus bringing profit level to
about the same as a business contract.
But the downside for business, They tend to be part of a big or
medium sized company which wold require about 10+ staffs or
more.
For IT, I can work with like 3 to 4 friends and still meet
deadline.
If I do not become freelance but go into a proper job. Many say IT
professionals do not have business sense but what I learn in school
is that they teach us the fundamentals of business. Like basic
functions, How IT is implemented in Business, Financing and
such.
So is what I said true or just part of my naiveness?
