REQUIREMENTS

 

   Applicants must submit either the GRE or the GMAT test scores for evaluation.  Students interested in pursuing post-graduate study as well as those who have a high probability of job transfers are strongly encouraged to take the GMAT as a majority of the MS-MIS degrees in the United States require the GMAT score.  For admission into the MS-MIS Program, all applicants must provide the following:  an acceptable GRE score (in some cases, a high GRE may be used to compensate for a low GPA) or an acceptable GMAT score.  Students in the MS-MIS will be expected to complete 36 hours of MGIS course work for graduation. 

 

   Foundation courses are for students who do not have at least 15 credit hours of business courses in their earned undergraduate or graduate degrees.  All graduate students must take MIS 505 WRITING FOR RESEARCH IN COMPUTER INFORMATION SYSTEMS.  All classes in the MS-MIS Program require students to have a basic understanding of business processes. All MS-MIS students should therefore have a working knowledge of the materials contained in the following set of business courses required for undergraduate MIS majors:

 

Principles of Accounting I
Principles of Finance
Principles of Management
Principles of Marketing
Organizational Behavior or Legal Environment of Business
