Students may take their required prerequisite courses while they are waiting to submit either of these test scores.
Students work closely with an academic adviser who teaches in the program.
The overall objective is to achieve the balance between technical knowledge and organizational knowledge that characterizes MIS expertise. Students may select electives based on their background and interest. All electives must be approved by the faculty adviser. All MIS graduates must complete MIS 583 Graduate Project and Seminar or MIS 585 MIS Thesis and Seminar. The nature of the project is contingent on the individual's career goals and may or may not include a practicum experience.
