The MS program offered by the Department of Information Systems is designed for people with, and without, an educational background in an IT field. Students may be admitted to the program in either the Fall or Spring semesters. The MS program requires satisfactorily completing 39 credits (13 3-hour courses) at the graduate level. One or more of the fundamental courses may be waived at the time of admission based on prior academic experience. As a result students entering this program will complete between 30 and 39 credit hours of graduate studies depending on their background. All MS students are required to take five core courses and then can choose five electives from the department’s course offerings. The deadlines for the MS in IS Program are January 1 for Fall and June 1 for Spring for international applicants. Deadlines for domestic applicants are May 1 for Fall and October 1 for Spring. All application materials must be on file in the IS department, by the stated deadlines for expeditious review. It is in the applicant’s best interest to apply and submit ALL materials early as we may have to cap our admissions based on the program’s enrollments.
