Computer Network Administrators

Employers

Approximately 383,900 computer network and systems administrators are employed in the United States. Any company or organization that uses computer networks in its business employs network administrators. These include insurance companies, banks, financial institutions, health care organizations, federal, state, and local governments, colleges and universities, and other organizations that rely on networking. Also, since smaller companies are moving to client-server models, more opportunities at almost any kind of business are becoming available. Network administrators also work at information technology firms that provide network consulting or support services to organizations on a contract basis.
