信息系统（IS）的目标是培养未来的设计领导者
The objective of information systems (IS) is to prepare future leaders in the design, application, and management of computer-based information systems.Students master both traditional concepts and recent advances in techniques, theories, and applications of information systems. Students interested in the organizational aspects of IS can blend their coursework with classes in the applied operations research and management of technology fields. Students can learn about IS design by studying the interaction between humans and computers (HCI), data analytics, information retrieval, and text analytics. IS students can complement their studies with additional technical courses offered by computer science. The skills learned prepare the IS graduate for employment in large or small technology companies, in government or other organizations. Typical positions include those of systems analyst, data scientist, information systems manager, and data architect. Doctoral students are prepared for academic or research positions.
