Information Technology (IT)
In the 1960s and 1970s, the term information technology (IT) was a little known phrase that was used by those who worked in places like banks and hospitals to describe the processes they used to store information. With the paradigm shift to computing technology and "paperless" workplaces, information technology has come to be a household phrase In today's world they define as "the acquisition, processing, storage and dissemination of vocal, pictorial, textual and numerical information by a microelectronics-based combination of computing and telecommunications". In simple language it means , an industry that uses computers, networking, software programming, and other equipment and processes to store, process, retrieve, transmit, and protect information
In the early days of computer development, there was no such thing as a college degree in IT. Software development and computer programming were best left to the computer scientists and mathematical engineers, due to their complicated nature. As time passed and technology advanced, such as with the advent of the personal computer in the 1980s and its everyday use in the home and the workplace, the world moved into the information age. .
By the early 21st century, nearly every child in the Western world, and many in other parts of the world, knew how to use a personal computer. Businesses' information technology departments have gone from using storage tapes created by a single computer operator to interconnected networks of employee workstations that store information in a server farm, often somewhere away from the main business site. Communication has advanced, from physical postal mail, to telephone fax transmissions, to nearly instantaneous digital communication through electronic mail (email).
A few of the duties that IT professionals perform may include data management, networking, engineering computer hardware, database and software design, as well as management and administration of entire systems. Information technology is starting to spread farther than the conventional personal computer and network technology, and more into integrations of other technologies such as the use of cell phones, televisions, automobiles, and more, which is increasing the demand for such jobs.
Jobs in information technology are widely varied, although many do require some level of higher education. Positions as diverse as software designer, network engineer, and database administrator are all usually considered IT jobs. Nearly any position that involves the intersection of computers and information may be considered part of this field.

Healthy Eating Tips for the Busy College Student
- Eat a good breakfast. Studies show that skipping breakfast detracts from scholastic achievement. When there isn't time to sit down and enjoy your morning meal, grab a bagel, piece of fruit, and some juice. Most of these items can be easily stored in your dorm room.
- Keep healthful snacks on hand so if hunger strikes during a late night study session, you won't be tempted by vending machine candy, chips, or ice cream. Possibilities include fresh or dried fruit, pretzels, un-buttered popcorn, rice cakes or whole wheat cracker. If you have a refrigerator, consider raw vegetables with low-fat yogurt or cottage cheese dip.
- Drink lots of water. Your body needs at least eight glasses a day, and if you exercise vigorously, you may need more. To remind yourself, carry a water bottle along to class and keep it handy during late night study sessions.
- Remember, food is a lot more than nourishment for our bodies. Enjoy and savor it.

New Year Resolution
New year resolution
As the 2010 comes to an end, It's resolution time again. Instead of making the same old difficult-to-stick-to promises, like losing weight or quitting smoking, use the New Year to take stock of your career.
Addressing career concerns might make you more fulfilled on a daily basis. If you make the resolutions wisely by setting small, achievable goals, you're likely to feel particularly rewarded.
The first step: Consider what your career goals are and examine whether you're on track to meet them. "Are you happy with your job and your career,"
If the answer is yes, that's great. But you should still be at least a passive job-seeker. Update your resume and pay attention to your industry, so you're not totally blind-sided if there's an economic downturn or some other major change in the job market. Also, this makes it easier to fully hop into job-seeking mode if you suddenly need to look for a new position. Have a general sense of who is hiring and what jobs are open.
Also, everyone should have a long-term career plan. This will help you figure out where you want to be in the next few years, so you can start thinking about how to get there. What do you have to learn, and who should you meet to fulfill the goal? Also, recognize that things change, and so should your career plan--it shouldn't be stagnant.
If you're not happy at work, ask yourself: What is it that my job lacks? What is it I actually want to do?
Your dissatisfaction might stem from the fact that your job doesn't allow you to do anything else. Enelow encourages clients to consider where on their priority list work fits in. For some people, work is the top priority; for others, it's third or fourth. If you want to spend more time with family and friends, but your job is all-encompassing, it might be time to rethink your job choice.
Whatever the reason, get in touch with your professional network. Use the New Year as an excuse to touch base via e-mail or by sending a card. Send a less formal note asking how your contacts' holidays were. Then say, "I had time over the holidays to think about my career, and as such, I've confidentially decided to explore new opportunities. I wanted to know if you know of anyone in the industry who I might want to know."
Enelow recommends sending a cover letter and resume to headhunters specifically in your field. "If a recruiter has an immediate opportunity, they will get in touch," she says. "For passive job seekers, it's a way of getting into the system, because recruiters will scan them into their database. They're in the system if an opportunity arises."
Those that are content at work should still consider their next step. Ask for honest feedback from your supervisor, peers and subordinates. This is an ideal way to hear what you're good at and what you need to improve on. "It's called '360 feedback,' and that's where the true results really come," says Stephen Harap, a management and leadership coach at Deloitte and Touche.
Know where you need to improve, because working on your weak points will actually help you get to the next level. "The time to get good at something is before you get that next role," says Harap.
Perhaps you don't know what that next level is. That's when it's time to chat with your supervisor for input. It's as simple as saying, "I'd love to have a conversation about what my career goals are. Am I on the right track?"
This is also a good tactic because you can ask your manager to become a partner in getting a promotion. He or she can suggest the necessarily skill sets and ways to master them, such as the books to read, online training or even classes.
Like any resolution, the key is moderation. After you've assessed your career, select one or two goals to achieve. As you check them off, add new ones.
