hi this is Shekhar from india
please take a look at following link
http://www.helpgaurav.com/index.asp
Gaurav Tandon is a 34 year old professional working with Datacraft Asia (a private IT firm) in Mumbai, India. His small family comprises wife, a 6 year old son. He has two elder sisters both are happily married and a brother who is serving as Captain in the Indian Army.
Gaurav was detected with AML (a type of Blood Cancer) in November 2008. He has responded well to chemotherapy, but must get a Bone Marrow Transplant as the only possibility for a cure. Unfortunately the HLA typing test of his siblings is negative. Doctors have therefore strongly recommemded a Non-Related Allogenic transplant. Since such transplantations are rarely performed in India, there is a high chance that we have to take him to places like Singapore, UK or the USA.
Gaurav's wife is a teacher in my college

I know i want to study something in the computer field, but I am not sure what specifically. I am thinking about Computer Information Systems, or maybe Cisco Networking. What do you guys think?
I'm starting a Graduate Diploma in computer science next fall, but my plan B is computer applications. It's up to what you like better, really.

Yeah I'm also thinking about computer science, I think it pays more too.
Well I don't know how it is around your place, but here, computer science is the general degree, then you choose a specific path. Here we have Computer Systems, Computer Applications, Games, Computers and maths, and if I'm not mistaken Computer Science and Administration. They're all part of the same Computer Science bachelor however, and you end up with the same degree at the end, but you'll have a more focussed training in an area. Doesn't keep you from getting a job in any other field though.
I was talking about a graduate diploma because in a month, I'll have a bachelor, so instead of going back for 3 more years of university, I could take some kind of shortcut and take a graduate diploma, which is a year of studies and will allow me to go for a master in computer science next year.
Do you think CIS has a good outlook?

I'm good in computers field too and i'm considering computer Systems Engineer, you can get job easily on any company and they pays good
My advice: Information Security, Network Engineer (e.g. Cisco, Juniper, etc.), or DBA. Those are the top paying roles on the IT side that don't require going through the trenches of end-user support.

Finding and getting into the college of your choice is tough enough, but the process can get even more demanding if you also figure in the next question: What do I study?
If you do your research, you might at least be able to narrow the selections.
One place to start is the Princeton Review’s “Top 10 Most Popular Majors” list, which asked colleges across the country to list the majors they offer, and report which three had the highest undergrad enrollment. Based on that cumulative response, here are the 10 most popular majors:
1. Business Administration and Management
2. Psychology
3. Elementary Education
4. Biology
5. Nursing
6. Education
7. English
8. Communications
9. Computer Science
10. Political Science
The Job Hunt: How to Start a Successful Career
It’s no surprise that business appears to be America’s No. 1 college major. Alice Reinarz, assistant provost for enrollment at Texas A&M University, believes students have a fascination with “corporate America.”
Majors such as accounting and finance, she said, “provide a more technical curriculum that is directly transferable to the workplace.”
Students taking the business route often have an easier time transitioning into the job market, yielding a double graduation bonus: a paycheck, plus no graduate school bills.
The amount of your paycheck can also get a boost by majoring in business. The National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE) Summer 2006 Salary Survey reports that the current average starting salary for graduates with an accounting degree is $45,518 — quite a feast for a starving college student. The NACE survey also produced a Top 10 Jobs and average starting salaries for the class of 2006:
1. Field Engineering -- $51,162
2. Consulting -- $50,657
3. Project Engineering -- $49,888
4. Design/Construction Engineer -- $48,025
5. Financial/Treasury Analysis -- $46,448
6. Accounting (Public) -- $45,518
7. Accounting (Private) -- $44,240
8. Management Trainee (Entry) -- $39,501
9. Sales -- $38,343
10. Teaching -- $31,408
Business degrees should continue to increase in value, at least for the next four years, according to a forecast survey conducted by FastCompany.com, which compiled its findings in a Top 25 Jobs for 2005-09. The survey found that engineering and health/medical degrees also are good choices for today’s undergraduates.
The path to the corner office, however, isn’t on everyone’s postgraduate agenda.
“I chose my major because I enjoy working with children,” said Andrea Stern, a Brooklyn College junior majoring in elementary education. “I feel that it is very important to help children start off their education on the right foot because education is the key to success.”
While entering the teaching world often requires specific coursework or certification, some non-education graduates enter the classroom immediately after college through the “Teach for America” program, a highly selective program that places graduates willing to commit to a certain number of years teaching in an urban or rural public school. College graduates from all academic majors with minimum cumulative undergraduate GPAs of 2.50 (out of 4.0) and higher are eligible to apply.
Many undergraduates also choose to major in the sciences, often with ambitions of becoming a doctor, which requires many years of post-graduate education. There are, however, many growing opportunities in the health care industry for medical assistants, physician assistants, nurses, chiropractors and other various occupations, none of which requiring a graduate or doctorate degree.
On the high-tech side of the health industry, biology majors are looking into jobs in genetics and biochemistry, which Michael Cahill, director of the Center for Career Services at Syracuse University, identifies as among the most rapidly expanding industries. Cahill also believes graduates will find growing opportunities in social services, software engineering and network systems.
Whatever major a student chooses, Mike Mazzone, a 2005 graduate of Ithaca College, put the choice into perspective: “The most popular goal among students in college is to be able to walk out with a job.”

Pick something more useful/general. Computer Science or Computer Engineering. Those two you've suggested are just "button clicker" training.

Hi all,
Firstly, I would like to state that I am new here and not a techie.
I offer a unique career opportunity. I am here to facilitate and identify top talent who may be interested in working in the warm and hospitable climate that is Thailand, for a global internet based company.
In short I am a recruiter looking to fill technical positions within mobile application development for my client who operates a global online booking platform.
I have read the rules of engagement and I do not believe I am in breach with this post - I am not selling anything. I earn a pre-agreed fee upon successful placement with my client; which is well earned for plunging the depths and identifying the best talent and coordinating them through the entire recruitment lifecycle; and this has no impact whatsoever on your potential earnings. My involvement will cease once you start with the client and become an employee.
This is a permanent position in Bangkok and the client offers a full visa and relocation package. Thailand is an ASEAN top 10 nation offering an excellent quality of life, warm hospitality and a sunny climate. How would you like to do the job you love in this environment?
My client is looking for someone with strong mobile application development skills and experience releasing applications on mobile app stores. You will take ownership of your work from analysis, design, implementation and testing, all the way to going live and monitoring the results afterward and evaluate innovative applications and present new ideas for improvement.
The client is a profitable business with the atmosphere of a start-up and is one of the largest and fasting growing online platforms in Asia. The successful candidate will join a team of experienced Scrum developers and have a high degree of autonomy. Technology and innovation are at the heart of everything the client does and you will have the chance to work with cutting edge technology to extend the lead on the competition and your work will have an impact on what the client does around the globe; with a short command structure and the capital to make things happen, your ideas will be put into practise quickly.
This opportunity would suit young professional with a sense of adventure and around 5 years experience.

1989 was a year of upheavals. One of them took place in the mind of Tim Berners-Lee. The physicist at the world's best-known research center, CERN in Geneva, Switzerland, was disturbed by the notorious information chaos between the various institutes and the numerous working and project groups. As a solution, he came up with the idea of a digital information network through which scientists could exchange information. The then 34-year-old scientist wrote down the concept in short form. "Vague but exciting," his boss commented on the memo. Too vague, apparently. For the time being, nothing happened.
But Berners-Lee continued to think, and the individual components of the World Wide Web were formed: so-called URLs for Web addresses, HTML to describe Web pages, i.e. to be able to program them. The technical protocol HTTP for links had to work and finally a recipe for a web browser had to be created. Exactly 30 years ago, the world public was able to see the result: On April 30, 1993, CERN researchers launched the World Wide Web. Technologically little changed until today, this was the beginning of the triumphant advance of the Internet.
