The Program
The BS in Information Systems online degree program enables students to acquire the skills and credentials needed to enter or advance in the fields of application software programming, cybersecurity, database management and infrastructure and support.
The curriculum is composed of foundational core courses, and two tracks (management and technical), of which students will select one.
- Through the Foundational Core students will acquire the knowledge and gain experience with information systems, infrastructure and support, computer and network security, networks and data communications, enterprise architecture, systems analysis and design, e-commerce, information technology governance, business process design and project management.
- The General track focuses on business case development, requirements gathering, implementation and financial management of information systems, accounting, marketing, HR and supply chain management.
- The Technical track focuses on software application development, database programming and systems security.
A minimum grade of a C is required in all courses in the Information Systems major, as well as all prerequisite courses. Where there are prerequisites, a student may not progress to the next course in the sequence without having a C in the prerequisite course(s).
