From smartphones to gaming consoles to productivity systems to digital media, digital technology specialists are behind their design and creation. These professionals may choose to focus on programming and software, user interfaces, networks and data transmission, hardware or other functionalities in this field.

In order to improve job prospects and learn more specialized information, many students decide to earn an undergraduate degree, such as a Bachelor of Arts. Certain schools allow students to earn a BA on a flexible schedule through online or part-time programs.

Part-time learning allows one to obtain a degree or qualification even if one cannot attend school on a full-time basis. One can learn at one's own pace, gradually accumulating credits that count towards a final qualification.
