Prerequisites
Candidates for the MSITS must complete the prerequisite requirements before registering for courses in the IT core or electives. The following three courses are prerequisites:
- A course in IS architecture that covers computer, system, and telecommunication architectures
- A systems analysis and design course
- A management science/deterministic decision making course
Students missing one or more of these prerequisites may sign up for the courses 770.517 Information and Telecommunication Systems Architecture, 770.514 Systems Analysis and Design, and 771.732 Quantitative Decision Making for Business.
Students with no IT background may register for the Graduate Certificate in Information and Telecommunication Systems, which satisfies all the prerequisite requirements and provides a sampling of core courses. Core course credits may transfer into the MSITS.
