The CIS major is tailed to take advantage of Drury's strengths, setting it apart in the marketplace, and is specially focused on the strengths of the Breech School of Business Administration and its liberal arts context.
Students develop and use computer applications in making business decisions.
Therefore the major consists of a basis of computer science courses and business courses, plus courses in designing and managing large databases and in the management of information systems. All majors offered in the Breech School must include a number of core courses. Therefore, like accounting and international business, the CIS major exceeds the normal number of hours required for completion of a bachelor of arts degree.
