Description:
USF Polytechnic has been in the news more and more frequently during the last year or so, but newspaper articles cannot come close to describing the size of the challenge we have set for ourselves. Nor do they address what might be of most interest to members of AITP: what’s Poly doing in IT degrees and programs that are different from what we’ve done in the past, and what new IT efforts are coming over the horizon? USF Poly is playing for high stakes. What does it all mean for you?
