I decided to enroll in graduate courses in the Applied Information Technology (AIT) program after taking off one semester. I made the transition from full time undergraduate student to full-time working professional then to full-time working professional/part time graduate student. Personally, I thought the transitory period was a bit overwhelming at first, but after getting over the “work-life-school balance adjustment factor,” taking classes became part of my routine again. Fortunately, the AIT program was designed with the working Information Technology (IT) professional in mind, which certainly helped make the transition much easier.
The AIT Masters Program is coordinated through the Center for Applied Information Technology (CAIT), which is a part of the Division of Economic and Community Outreach (DECO) at Towson University. TU also offers a Doctor of Science in AIT, and six graduate level certificates. These certificates focus on the following information technology concentrations:
- Database Management Systems
- Information Security & Assurance
- Information Systems Management
- Internet Application Development
- Networking Technologies
- Software Engineering

I recommend that any IT professional who seeks to further their IT skills or is considering enrolling in a graduate level IT program to check out CAIT. Classes are conveniently scheduled in the evenings and Saturdays, and courses are lead by professors with “real world” experience.
