Question: Carleton School of Information Technology together with Algonquin College, offers an undergraduate academic degree that generally requires how many years of study?
Context: A Master of Science in Information Technology (abbreviated M.Sc.  IT, MSc IT or MSIT) is a type of postgraduate academic master's degree usually offered in a University's College of Business and in the recent years in integrated Information Science & Technology colleges.  The MSIT degree is designed for those managing information technology, especially the information systems development process.  The MSIT degree is functionally equivalent to a Master of Information Systems Management, which is one of several specialized master's degree programs recognized by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB).  MCA is a three year professional master's degree in the field of computer applications, awarded in India.  The MCA program is designed for students with variety of undergraduate backgrounds, such as commerce and science, focusing in the field of IT. A bachelor's degree (from Middle Latin "baccalaureus") or baccalaureate (from Modern Latin "baccalaureatus") is an undergraduate academic degree awarded by colleges and universities upon completion of a course of study lasting three to seven years (depending on institution and academic discipline).  In some institutions and educational systems, some bachelor's degrees can only be taken as graduate or postgraduate degrees after a first degree has been completed.  In countries with qualifications frameworks, bachelor's degrees are normally one of the major levels in the framework (sometimes two levels where non-honours and honours bachelor's degrees are considered separately), although some qualifications titled bachelor's degrees may be at other levels (e.g. MBBS) and some qualifications with non-bachelor's titles may be classified as bachelor's degrees (e.g. the Scottish MA and Canadian MD). In the United States, the PhD degree is the highest academic degree awarded by universities in most fields of study.  American students typically undergo a series of three phases in the course of their work toward the PhD degree.  The first phase consists of coursework in the student's field of study and requires one to three years to complete.  This often is followed by a preliminary, a comprehensive examination, or a series of cumulative examinations where the emphasis is on breadth rather than depth of knowledge.  The student is often later required to pass oral and written examinations in the field of specialization within the discipline, and here, depth is emphasized.  After the comprehensive examination the student is a "PhD Candidate", which is the academic equivalent of a Master's degree (today, universities will award terminal Master's for students who drop out of the PhD program at this stage, and some, like Columbia University and the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, award a Master's en route to the PhD).  Some PhD programs require the candidate to successfully complete requirements in pedagogy (taking courses on higher level teaching and teaching undergraduate courses) or applied science (e.g., clinical practice and predoctoral clinical internship in PhD programs in clinical, counseling, or school psychology). A Bachelor in Information Management (BIM) degree is an undergraduate academic degree in Information technology requiring three to four years of study to acquire.  This degree is a hybrid program with a mix of management and information technology courses with a focus on analytical, problem solving, decision-making and critical thinking skills. A Bachelor of Information Technology (abbreviations BIT, BInfTech, B.Tech(IT) or BE(IT)) is an undergraduate academic degree that generally requires three to five years of study.  While the degree has a major focus on computers and technology, it differs from a Computer Science degree in that students are also expected to study management and information science, and there are reduced requirements for mathematics.  A degree in computer science can be expected to concentrate on the scientific aspects of computing, while a degree in information technology can be expected to concentrate on the business and communication applications of computing.  There is more emphasis on these two areas in the e-commerce, e-business and business information technology undergraduate courses.  Specific names for the degrees vary across countries, and even universities within countries. A Bachelor of Software Engineering (B.SE.)  is an undergraduate academic degree (bachelor's degree) awarded for completing a program of study in the field of software development for computers in information technology. A Bachelor of Medical Science (Honours) (BMedSci, BMedSc, BMSc, BSci(Med) or Bachelor of Medical Sciences is an undergraduate academic degree awarded for completed courses that generally last for 2–4 years.  Acceleration modes are offered for students who decide to fast-track the duration of a relevant degree or pathway to graduate medical training (Doctor of Medicine) earlier, as opposed to completing a typical undergraduate degree which lasts 3–5 years. Algonquin College Kuwait is a private post-secondary institution in Kuwait specializing in information technology and business.  The college was authorized to operate in Kuwait by an Emiri Decree in October 2010.  In September 2015, Algonquin College of Kuwait was established as a branch campus of Algonquin College in Ottawa, Canada. The Master of Laws (M.L. or LL.M.; Latin "Magister Legum " or "Legum Magister ") is a postgraduate academic degree, pursued by those either holding an undergraduate academic law degree, a professional law degree, or an undergraduate degree in a related subject.  In some jurisdictions the "Master of Laws" is the basic professional degree for admission into legal practice. Carleton School of Information Technology (CSIT) is part of the Faculty of Engineering and Design at Carleton University.  CSIT, together with Algonquin College, offers a Bachelor of Information Technology undergraduate program with three streams of study: Interactive Multimedia & Design, Network Technology, and Photonics & Laser Technology.
