MANAGEMENT INFORMATION SYSTEMS ACADEMIC MAP (Effective Summer "C" 2009 and after) |
|
This map is a term-by-term sample course schedule. The milestones listed to the right of each term are designed to keep you on course to graduate in four years. The Sample Schedule serves as a general guideline to help you build a full schedule each term. The Liberal Studies and Elective courses must be selected to satisfy all area, literature, lab,
Gordon Rule, and multicultural requirements unless your program meets these requirements with major courses. Milestones are courses and special requirements necessary for timely progress to complete a major. Missing milestones will result in one of two types of map registration stops. The first level (Degree Map Offtrack) is placed following grade posting if the student has missed a milestone (course and/or GPA) for the first time in the major. If a student is in non-compliance with milestones for two (2) consecutive semesters (excluding summers), a Major Change Required stop is placed on the student's registration.
Management information systems is a limited-access major. To be admitted to the major, you must have completed at least 52 hours, have earned a “C-“ or better in the Admission Prerequisite Courses (CGS2100, MAC2233, ECO2013, ECO2023, ACG2021, & STA2023), and have the required overall GPA. The major focuses on developing technical and managerial competency and specifically deals with effectively utilizing information for operations and organizational decision-making. It includes work in systems analysis, database management, networks, telecommunications, decision support, and expert systems. A special focus on understanding communication and network structure is provided.
