Curriculum and Courses
The MS in CIS program consists of four hours of
foundation courses (Phase I) and 12 three-hour
courses in three remaining phases. Phase II consists
of five core courses in fundamental information
systems topics. Phase III offers six advanced
courses in pioneering areas of information systems.
Phase IV brings the program together with a Capstone
