B.S.
Integrated Information Systems
The B.S. in Integrated Information Systems program emphasizes the use of computers
as sophisticated problem-solving tools. Students
in this program pursue an interdisciplinary course of study that combines a solid
foundation in computer science with a focus in a business discipline. This program is designed for students who
seek to blend their computer science abilities with skills specific to another
domain to solve problems in that domain. Examples
include computing with a business focus (e.g., management information systems,
decision support systems).
