Would it be better to major in information technology or information systems?

They say information technology jobs are starting to be cut due to a slow economy. Does that mean information systems too?|||Even though the economy may be slow right now, companies will always be in need of people who can help them communicate, store, and analyze information.





What you should really be thinking about here is what area YOU would rather work in. Do you want to do more analysis, programming, and abstract work (IS), or do you want to get down and dirty with the actual technology (IT)?





Another thing to consider in our current times, is "how easily could my chosen profession be performed by a third party?" Or in other words, could companies easily outsource my profession to India?





Good luck with your decision.|||There is always a need for Technology and Information jobs just some cuts are due to physical labor like Janitorial or Mail jobs. This is the first time I have herd of any cuts on Technology especially since they are begging for people to work.
