Management of Information Systems

Mount Olive College specializes in accelerated programs for adults. The Management of Information Systems (MIS) program will prepare you for a career in the ever-evolving information technology sector. You will learn how to analyze, design, and implement information systems by studying and developing practical applications with the latest technologies. You will also develop broad business knowledge and learn how IT interacts with the rest of the business. Having a business foundation coupled with a technological skill set allows you to use technology with maximum efficiency. This program does not teach technology for technology sake, but rather emphasizes technological applications that further business goals and align with business strategies. We believe this gives you both a way to enter the IT area, as well as, the business savvy to move up within it. The best news is you may be able to complete your degree while working full-time.
