MA/MS in Management Information Systems and Services

This master's degree combines general management training with a focus on information systems. Students develop leadership skills for guiding technology staff, data platforms and the business issues that technology creates, along with expertise in organizational behavior, communication and planning. The core covers accounting, finance, HR, leadership, communication and research methods. In the final year, a capstone project on a genuine business problem takes the place of a thesis or exam. Career paths range from IT project leadership to managing information systems, security teams or technology operations. Graduates learn to link technology initiatives to organizational goals using data analytics and systems management. A business degree is not required for admission, and the program is available online and in Orlando.
