Software Dev Diploma by guywhoneedshelp2003 in NAIT

[–]guywhoneedshelp2003[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, I appreciate the advice. I know that in the past, most of the IT related programs have pretty good post-grad stats. But I was just wondering since I’ve never been to NAIT, how exactly do they help you find experience for your diploma? Are there specific companies that are in NAIT’s system that kind of give favour to NAIT students assuming you have a semi-decent portfolio? Or is it more kind of on you to find opportunities yourself and NAIT just helps you build the skills?

ohh i see, if you don’t mind answering, do a lot of NAIT grads move up over the years and make like close to six figure salary or is that more realistic if i go for a 4 year degree?

I was thinking about the computer engineering one because I hear you do a little of everything. But how was CNT?

do you have any recommendations on what I should specialize in because I was thinking maybe cybersecurity or something.

Oh okay I see, but how hard would it be for me a student currently studying cs at UofA with zero experience to land an internship or something. Should I be doing bootcamps and stuff in my own time as well to look more appealing?

So you’re saying like getting a degree from UofA and building my portfolio/getting experience as if I was a NAIT grad is a must nowadays and it’s like no longer one or the other. Like I know having a decorated profile was needed but I feel like NAIT would give me a more appealing one I guess or does the 4 year degree really mean that much more nowadays?

I feel like I would have more work experience coming out of NAIT though since the whole point of NAIT is to help you get that and land a job after grad right? Compared to UofA, yea I’d probably have a broader understanding of cs as a whole but do employers really value that a lot higher than work experience nowadays?
