MSIS Cohort Program
The Master of Science in Information Systems (MSIS) Cohort program consists of a set of industry-focused courses built on a foundation of business core principles culminating in an integrated capstone class and industry-related project. The objective of this program is to provide managers of various functional business areas the necessary knowledge to effectively interface with the Information Technology organization.
