Bachelor of Science in Information Systems & Analytics

The Bachelor of Science in Information Systems & Analytics prepares students for careers in a rapidly changing technological world by training them to analyze business problems, challenges and opportunities, apply data-driven analytical techniques, and to subsequently design, develop, implement and maintain business solutions through the use of information and information technology. 

Students specializing in ISA learn how to analyze complex business situations, solicit and analyze information from individuals and systems, write specification documents, effectively communicate with both technical and non-technical people, design and develop technological solutions, implement and integrate various technologies, propose and evaluate alternative solutions, develop and manage project plans, and assess system success and organizational impacts.
