What kind of career can I expect to find with a 2-year computer networking degree?

I am most curious about the entry-level jobs.

You'd qualify for a job as a computer support specialist (help desk agent), but a lot of those jobs have been outsourced, though some are coming back since the customer service didn't pan out because of language and cultural issues.

Many network systems analysts have bachelor's degrees today, so you'd be at a great disadvantage competing with them, especially if they had been in a program that helped them get network certifications (Network+ for example). But it'd help if you could get as many network certifications as you could, if you don't have them already. I'd suggest you pick a program that has an internship program, so you'd have certifications and experience to help you compete with students who have bachelor's degrees.

Here's the fastest growing computer careers for 2004-14, (which are all in the top 25 fastest growing jobs overall), according to the US Dept of Labor (all of these require a bachelors and make $43,000 or more):
