what is the job outlook for someone who studies "Network systems technician"?
There is this course offered at a school I'm interested in going to. I've always been a computer guy. Just wondering what are the jobs that a person in this field would be pursuing, and what would their responsibilities be like.

This would be someone who runs network cables, puts servers in the racks, assembles the computer racks. It's more of a maintenance position than an IT one (I don't say that as a bad thing, just so you're aware of what it is). As for the market, jobs will be more plentiful in big cities and areas where there are multiple datacenters.

Typically you'd be a company's IT person (or part of a team). Ensuring documents are being saved to a server (or cloud), and ensuring the server/cloud has a backup, and ensuring a network stays functional.

It's similar to what computer technician's do except that the focus is not on hardware but software.
