The mission of the Department of Computer Information Systems is to provide programs to prepare students to solve business problems through the use of computer information systems, computer tools, and techniques; to prepare students in the management of computer information systems; to provide foundation courses to students in other fields; to encourage intellectual contributions that advance the state of knowledge in the application of information technology and quantitative methods to the solution of business problems; and to promote the involvement of department members in service activities.
The Computer Information Systems program is designed to prepare the student to assume information systems/ technology responsibilities in any organization.
