Master of Science in Computer Information Systems

Overview

The Master of Science (MS) in Computer Information Systems program is designed for students who wish to combine technical competence in information systems with knowledge of managerial and organizational issues. The program prepares students for careers as security analysts, system analysts, and information system leaders.

Concentration in Security
Students may pursue a Concentration in Security, which provides in-depth knowledge of emerging security threats and solutions to prepare technical leaders to identify, develop, and implement highly secure systems and networks that support organizational goals.

Dual Degree Option

Actuarial Science
Administrative Studies

In appreciation of the converging nature of management skills and technology, the Computer Science department collaborates with Metropolitan College’s departments of Administrative Sciences and Actuarial Science. Degree candidates in Computer Science, Administrative Studies, and Actuarial Science may use eight credits from one degree toward a second degree in one of these disciplines, thereby reducing their work by two courses. Students must be accepted by both departments, but they may request that application materials such as references and transcripts be forwarded from the first program to the second.
