From what I understand ..
Information Systems study mainly involves studying things like..
Data Base, Software design, some form of programing in high level language,Human Computer Interaction, AI etc..
Computer Technology will involve studying..
Some form of programing in machine level/binary level languages, hardware design, networking, etc..
In a nut shell, IS == information storage and retreival methodologies and design.
CT == Hardware design aspect and physical computer.
At least this is what I fond during my studies and working as a tutor at Uni.. Hopes this helps
