Management information systems (MIS) is a computer-oriented branch of management, which focuses on how computers can best be used to support managerial decisions, manage information effectively, and facilitate planning. But the emphasis is not just on computer skills. The behavior of organizations and persons is studied to see what kind of systems will actually be successful in these tasks. Students will need a strong technical background in computers, but also training in accounting, economics, finance, marketing, mathematics, quantitative methods, and organizational behavior. The market for MIS graduates is expected to grow steadily as business technical needs become more complex.

MIS Association (MISA) is comprised of all business majors, but mostly geared towards MIS students. It intends to give students opportunities to meet and speak with local business leaders. By participating in the organization, students are able to listen to professionals speak of real-life situations and job experiences relating to Information Services, so that they may have a better understanding of what to expect when job searching.

There is no membership fee to join MISA!
