no ashken comp sci is completly the wrong direction for a computer tech. Best advice I can give is to check out local colleges see if they do any sort of maintenance courses. Failing that try to get an appointment with a carrers advisor at a local job center or citizens advice

Cisco courses such as CCNA, CCNP and CCIE are good certification courses provided u're interested in networking, and combining it with a IT(information technology) degree makes u a hot cake in the IT industry. The good thing is u could study for the IT degree and collect those Cisco certifications at the same time, more like killing 2 birds with 1 stone.

Most of the guys i know of who did a mathematics degree took up database-related courses. You can study oracle has had been suggested. Or you can go down the cisco path. Start with CCNA then go to CCNP then there is the 3rd stage i don't really recall which will make you a hot cake.
