    About: The Bachelor of Science in Information Systems provides a solid foundation in the principles and practices of information technology. You'll learn about systems analysis, database management, and networking. The program emphasizes practical experience and prepares you to work effectively in technology-driven environments.
    Career Outcomes: This degree opens doors to various roles, including systems analyst, IT consultant, and database administrator. Graduates often find opportunities in both public and private sectors, helping organizations optimize their information systems for better performance.

It graduates are business professionals who know how to apply leading technologies to help firms solve business problems and become more competitive. They work with managers and executives to identify business requirements and to translate those requirements into IS solutions that are then implemented by technology specialists.

IS bridges the gap between technology and various business disciplines, such as business analytics, finance, accounting, marketing, and supply chain. Combining IS with a second business concentration helps students stand out in the competitive job market.

IS professionals have a diversity of roles beyond developing computer code. Technology-focused companies often hire IS graduates and offer them a career path to a job that doesn't require coding, like business analysis and project management.

Successful IS students are those who:

  • Have an interest in technology
  • Like problem solving
  • Are good communicators
  • Enjoy interacting with people in business and technology
