An MBA with a Specialization in Information Systems Management is a business degree that has an increased focus on information systems management courses. It combines the business administration classes of a typical MBA degree program with coursework that teaches you about information systems in order to help you better implement technology-based solutions into the workplace.
At DeVry, you’ll learn how to implement technology in order to encourage more effective communication between parties, but from the comfort of your own home and on your own schedule by earning your degree 100% online.
You can do a lot of things with an MBA Information Systems Management Specialization. Because this MBA teaches both information systems management and business administration, you’ll have the opportunity to build skills that are important to both fields. Because you’re not limited to just technology or business, you can utilize your diverse knowledge base to explore a wider range of career opportunities.
Because of the diverse range of coursework that’s covered in a specialized MBA program, you may be able to consider a wider variety of job opportunities in information systems management or IS security. While the following list does not cover every potential opportunity, here are some job titles that graduates of our MBA Information Systems Management Specialization might consider:
At DeVry, applicants must hold a bachelor’s degree from a University-recognized institution and demonstrate math and language skills proficiency by achieving an undergraduate GPA higher than 2.50, or achieving and submitting acceptable scores on the Graduate Record Examination (GRE) test or the Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT). Visit our Graduate School Admissions page for more detailed information.
While they may seem very similar, there are some clear distinctions between IT and IS management that may influence your career goals. IT management concentrates on the management and maintenance of the hardware and software involved in an information system’s operation, while IS management focuses more on the management, analysis and optimization of data.
With a focus on information security, data administration and other vital technical topics, our Master’s in Information Systems Management (MISM) program can help you develop a high-level understanding of information systems and their place in the modern business framework. This master’s degree program can be enhanced with a specialization in information security, data administration and management or project management.
Our MBA with a Specialization in Information Systems Management, on the other hand, combines the business administration coursework of a traditional MBA program, such as finance, marketing and human resource management, with an introduction of several aspects of information systems and how they are applied in today’s business environment.
