Information Systems Program

 1. Program Mission

Delivering high quality, accessible undergraduate information systems education to a diverse student population. The department prepares students to ana­lyze, design, develop and use business applications utilizing contemporary technology. Also, providing a balance between fundamental information systems concepts and the application of these concepts from a future-oriented perspective.
 
 
1.       To introduce students to relevant information technologies, teamwork, and decision making necessary for the integration of business processes using information technology.
2.       To provide students with understanding of the strategic use of information systems.
3.       To prepare students to use the systems development life cycle along with its tools, techniques, methodologies, and processes, to develop computer-based information systems that meet the needs of businesses and organizations.
4.       To equip students with the ability to analyze the motivations, architectures, and implementation of IS security policy technologies and practices.
5.       To provide students with web development and object-oriented programming skills to use in the development of solutions in business.
6.       To provide students with database skills used to perform data analysis, design, implementation, and administration.
7.       To equip students with a thorough understanding of the existing use of data communications networks and future developments in this area.
8.       To prepare students for the development of computer-based systems projects from the point of request through analysis, design, development, documentation, testing, and implementation.
