Management Information Systems

Program Content

Information systems managers are primarily concerned with the information that computer systems can provide to aid an enterprise in defining and achieving its goals, and the processes that an enterprise can implement and improve using information technology. They understand both technical and organizational factors and help an organization determine how information and technology-enabled processes can provide a competitive advantage. Such specialists play a key role in determining the requirements for an organization's information systems and are active in their specification, design and implementations.

Education in Management Information Systems seeks to develop an understanding of organizational principles and practices so that information systems managers can serve as an effective bridge between the technical and management communities within an organization, enabling them to work in harmony to ensure that the organization has the information and the systems it needs to support its operations.

At IIHEM, the Management Information Systems major is unique in that it combines the study of business with the application of information technology and project management expertise to business environments. The emphasis is on developing problem-solving, inter-personal, communication and team skills that allow successful information systems managers to work effectively in teams. In addition to the common body of knowledge in business, students study microcomputer application design, systems analysis, database management and systems design. Courses in operations management and quality control enhance students’ understanding of the issues related to the operations of production and services in a firm.
