Master of Science in Information and Telecommunication Systems/MBA
This new program is a unique offering of the Carey Business School that allows students to complete both the Master of Business Administration (MBA) and the MS Information and Telecommunication Systems (ITS) degrees in 66 credits, which is only 12 credits more than the MBA alone.
The program is designed for professionals who believe that to be an effective manager in their current environment requires knowledge of not only the organization and the business, but also the information systems that support and provide information about the organization and its competitors. The dual degree program allows for a fuller presentation of the information systems issues than a "techno-MBA," and it also provides a broader understanding of the various organizational and business issues than can be provided in a stand-alone master's degree in information systems management.
The program welcomes applicants with diverse backgrounds: neither an undergraduate business nor computer science/information systems education is required;. The program emphasizes the latest concepts, practices, and skills that professionals need to be effective managers and leaders in a wide variety of organizations. The curriculum encompasses the practical, theoretical, quantitative, qualitative, and ethical dimensions of leadership. It also presents the methodology and technology skills needed to plan, develop, and manage integrated information and telecommunication systems throughout the organization.
