Why Computer Information Systems (CIS)?

The databases, web sites and computer systems people use every day operate effectively because of the complex programming that works behind the scenes. Ensuring that these systems work to meet the goals of a particular company, service or organization falls to computer information systems specialists and CIS management professionals. Demand for these professions extends to virtually every industry. As a result, according to Job Futures Canada, salaries for programmers, analysts, application developers and database administrators are substantially higher than the national average.
