Since sysadmin doesn't fall into this category, I would have to
recommend either...

programming...
- perl
- java
- c
not necessarily in that order and better if you have some proficiency in
all of them

or

database
- oracle
- IBM db
- PostgreSQL or MySQL
with the tool knowledge to create applications and reports
Perhaps the GNUe toolkit might be the ticket here but I doubt the
schools are teaching that yet.
