Information Systems (IS)

IS professionals employ information technology (IT) to improve or enable business processes. They work with a company's IT and development staff in facilitating business process owners' needs for process automation and process re-engineering. IS graduates work in many capacities such as systems and process analysts, application developers, application support staff, and IT service staff.
