Management Information Systems (B.S.)
Management Information Systems brings together the various areas in business and computer science to focus on the process of providing the information necessary for making decisions and conducting business.
Our MIS program is one of the best available as it combines strong business and technical components with real-world experiences. You'll learn both theory and methodology, allowing you to analyze, design, implement and manage information technology systems.
Our innovative program integrates a specialization in information management with accounting, finance, marketing and operations to prepare you for today's fast-paced business environment, and you may also emphasize your studies in business intelligence or business systems development.
During a capstone, two-semester design project, you will gain hands-on project management experience with a Dayton-area firm. In addition to business and technical skills, this team project emphasizes client interaction, professional communication and organizational skills.
You can also explore the business world and gain real-world experience before you graduate. Valuable professional opportunities such as internships and co-ops are available, and you will receive significant assistance in obtaining them.
