MA/MS in Computer/Information Technology Administration and Management

Graduates who wish to move up in technology work, or go on to a doctorate, are the target of this master's degree. Students shape it to their needs by choosing between a thesis path and a capstone-style projects path. The central software courses address object-oriented development, programming with open source tools, coding for analysis of data, and advanced software engineering. Further classes strengthen understanding of systems technologies and of business development, and instructors who have industry backgrounds supervise the thesis or project. Delivery is hybrid, and the School of Computing houses the program. Applicants need to be admitted to the university. Earlier study in technology is useful, and those from other fields may be given extra courses to catch up before starting the core sequence.
