Network Security vs Computer Networking

[Swansen]

Yeah, so i'm set on a career in the IT field, and now i'm at another crossroad. I don't really want to get a degree in a PC support type thing, A+ and all that jazz. Anyways, i've been thinking about working my ways towards network administration, but i was thinking and network security and computer networking are almost the same field, but i'm not really sure which is a better choice. Any input would be appreciated, thanks.

I'm studying for network administrator myself. You'll have to know networking and also the security of networks. So in most cases you'll get networking security as well.
