The Integrated Information Technology Program (iIT)—formerly Technology Support and Training Management—is part of USC‘s College of Hospitality, Retail, and Sport Management. Students in the iIT program receive an in-depth background in information technologies in four major areas. These areas include computer networking, database systems, corporate training and development, and end-user support. In the computer networking area, students learn about networking theory, hardware, configuration, design, installation, and network operating system administration. In the database systems area, students learn to create and maintain databases through courses in Access, Visual Basic (for database integration), Oracle, and Systems Analysis and Design.  The training area covers both the human side of corporate training, as well as the technical side of training materials development. The final area emphasizes end-user support which includes help desk.

To maximize the learning experience, all iIT students must complete a capstone course that incorporates all four core areas. In this course, student teams work with a real business, solve an actual system issue, and design the needed system. Additionally, they must complete an internship as a final requirement for the program. Students graduating from this program have a very diverse IT background and have obtained positions in a wide range of organizations ranging from Network Administrator to Database Administrator to Director of Information Technologies. The program places emphasis on technology-based decision making and information management skills in dynamic business environments.
