<p>Okay, so I am seriously considering in pursuing this degree after I've explored some of the options here at Penn State. I enjoy learning about technology and its social influences. I am a Media Studies major, but it's very...theoretical and less hands-on. I'm looking for something I can learn more concretely about technology, but at the same time be able to schedule my courses flexibly, which is why the B.A. really stands out to me. Also, I'm looking for a degree, which will help me find a job in the media industry. Does anyone have experience with the IST program here? Am I completely screwed if I don't have a big knowledge of computers? Is this the way to go for someone with my interest? Thanks!</p>
