This course is designed to be a guidance course that will cover what exactly Information Technology is and what Computer Science is. The goal of this course if to help you understand what you want to gain from your use of wikiversity and will help you plan what school in wikiversity you can find courses that will help you out will be. Also if your plan is to stay in the School of Information Technology we can help you plan your schedule and get you on a path to success.
