Management Information Systems (Concentration)

The Management Information Systems (MIS) concentration prepares students to play an important role within organizations as they transition the use of the Internet and adopt the latest technology into the everyday domain of the business world. Adopting a cross-functional managerial approach, students will gain a solid foundation in understanding how businesses operate across various functions such as management, finance, marketing, strategy, legal, and technology.

The courses in the MIS concentration have been designed to:

• broaden the students' appreciation of the reach of electronic business
• examine the positive rationale of doing business online
• investigate the explicit benefits from adopting the Internet
• better understand the effect of this evolutionary business paradigm as consumers become increasingly sophisticated in advancing their individual lifestyles.
