Information Systems Specialization
The Information Systems specialization is completely different from Computer Science in its focus on how to collect, store, and transform data into information. Professionals in this field are usually responsible for creating information systems in a specific organization.
These professionals typically provide technical support and assistance in integrating proven security solutions into complex information systems, in addition to integrating technology into commerce, which is now called e-commerce. This specialization is called Information Systems (IS) or Computer Information Systems (CIS).
Instead of just learning how technology works, students learn to identify what type of technology should be used to solve business problems. The following are the main topics that an Information Systems specialist will study:
- Computer Programming
- Information Systems Analysis and Design
- Information Systems Development
- Information Systems Project Management
- Information Systems Strategy and Management
As a specialist in Information Systems, you are expected to learn some courses related to business administration and some core courses from Computer Science. Graduates of this specialization are expected to have competence in problem-solving and systems development.
