Jared Said:

Any good paying jobs with an Information Technology Degree?

We Answered:

You would be better off with a more flexible degree — Bachelor's in Computer Engineering Technology, or similar.

Joy Said:

Do you think I can become a professor with a Bachelor of Science in Business-Information Technology degree?

We Answered:

It depends on the subject, and sometimes the school. For instance, you can teach some low-level Comm and English classes with a Bachelor's, but history requires a Masters, and Anthropology requires a PhD.

My guess is that, with your degree, you might be able to teach in a trade program, instructing students who are trying to earn an Associates in your area of expertise.

Gertrude Said:

What kind of job can I get with a Health Information Technology degree?

We Answered:

While I'm not sure about the CNA part, you are going to have to start entry level. There are all types of positions you can get, but make sure you get the certification for RHIT after you graduate. You can be a Patient Rep, Scheduler, Medical Secretary, Financial person. Normally you work your way into the coding and billing jobs.

Tammy Said:

What is the difference between an Information Technology degree and a software engineer?

We Answered:

probably the best advice you can get is to to with SIGs (Special Interest Groups) in those areas.
One of the many for software engineer is

Most large cities will have SIGs in both fields.
One possible search strategy.

Many will hold meetings once a month. There might be a membership fee which makes those meetings free or cheap and charge a little extra for non-members. Get there at least 30 mins before it starts to mingle with those established in those fields.
I knew a bar/restaurant next to a large IT firm. I would show up for a business lunch early to get a seat at the bar. Starting chatting. Found out that Thursday after work a large group from that company would meet there for drinks. I left my car in their company parking lot. Met a lot of people. I kept it easy on the drinks but still took a cab home. They called me in for some interviews which lead to a job. Start networking with people in those fields. There are online networking, some newsgroups that you can probably find through google/yahoo, and might be some special interest groups. Start a special interest group at college. Some may quickly get jobs after college and assist on getting members of the college SIG get a job in the following years. Like frats/sororities do.
