Career Opportunities

The MIS field is widely recognized for its current and future career potential. Specific career opportunities depend on the student's interests, course work, and experience. Some students go right into the MIS function and rise through the MIS ranks.

Others become the MIS specialists in a given functional area, such as production or finance, and become the resident experts, providing the liaison between MIS and their own functional organizations. Some go into end user support, often working in an information center.

Still others find employment with organizations such as hardware vendors, software vendors, and consulting firms that provide MIS products and services. You can direct further questions to your MIS professors or the MIS academic advisor.
