![two students at two monitors](https://shared.ontariotechu.ca/shared/department/registrar/program-images/FBIT-program-images/information-technology-pathways-program-infotechsec.jpg)
The program will develop your skills in data analytics, information systems, change management and data security.
This major is consistent with the university’s mandate and the Faculty of Business and Information Technology’s priority to be market-relevant. The focus on informatics integrates with research being conducted in the Informatics Research Institute and in associated incubators. It is a direct response to market demand for professionals with domain-specific knowledge and ICT-related skills. According to Statistics Canada (2008), the labour market for professionals with business informatics skills was an IT occupation that continued to thrive through the recession due to industry need.
Students completing this program will qualify for the Certified Business Technology Manager (CBTM) designation from Canadian Coalition for Tomorrow's ICT (Information Communication Technology) Skills (CCICT), once they obtain sufficient work experience.
Ontario Tech is a great place to develop knowledge on a variety of different topics across many different fields. This program covers the full spectrum of the game-development process, from conception to implementation, while also creatively integrating an indie studio feel with the Game Development Workshop. Having all of the hardware and software provided to you for all of your classes is also a great convenience.
