MANAGEMENT INFORMATION SYSTEMS
The Management Information Systems (MIS) Major
Program involves the managing of people and systems
related to information technology. The goal of the MIS
concentration is to integrate both areas of expertise and
apply the power of technology to solving business
problems.
The MIS major prepares students for a variety of
opportunities in the information technology field and
business. These opportunities include careers as
managers of computer service units or staff members
supporting computer-using organizations. The program
focuses on a mix of applied computer systems content,
interpersonal interaction, and a practical business
orientation which produces graduates who bridge the gap
between technical knowledge and business functions.
