Lead in efficiency.
Information systems are coordinated systems of hardware, software, data, procedures, and people who collect, process, store, and disseminate information in an organization. While information systems exist to facilitate efficient business operations and enable organizations to achieve their goals and objectives, they need a leader to help strategically leverage the technology for maximal success. By combining elements of computer science, business management, and information technology, information systems graduates will be equipped with the knowledge and skills needed to manage these systems effectively.
