Program details

Overview

This master's program builds information technology leadership, with advanced study of delivering IT solutions, securing systems and setting technology strategy. Students apply what they learn through hands-on projects and a written paper centered on practical industry questions. The degree requires thirty hours of coursework and is taught on campus, in a traditional or accelerated version. It is not designated as a STEM program, so international graduates qualify for the standard twelve months of post-completion work authorization. Applicants should hold a background in MIS, CIS, computer science or a related discipline. Admission calls for a resume, three recommendation letters, a GPA of 3.3 and a GRE or GMAT result, with limited waivers for recent UA graduates. Because the program leans on experiential projects, students practice presenting technical recommendations to business audiences as well as building the technical solutions themselves.
