Management Information Systems prepares students for careers in computer-based information systems in organizational environments.
Newer areas such as networking, cybersecurity, and user/manager involvement in the global business environment are integrated with the traditional skills of programming, analysis and design, database development, various architectures, and application development.
Microprocessor technology, the mainframe environment, and client server applications are included, as well as an emphasis on business computing issues such as profitability, budgeting, collaboration, and project management. These adhere to standards for a balanced curriculum as promulgated by the Association for Information Systems, the technology-accrediting arm of the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business.
