MIS MBA

The MIS Department offers three sequences: Decision Technology, Electronic Commerce (offered jointly with the Marketing Department), and MIS professional.

  • The Decision Technology is for those wishing to develop their managerial decision-making skills or planning a career in decision support.
  • The Electronic Commerce track is for students seeking the skills necessary for participating in the electronic commerce revolution.
  • The MIS Professional sequence is for those seeking to specialize in the management of MIS or MIS consulting.

The three sequences balance theoretical, practical, and technological considerations.
