Classes are Rolling

It's been a while since the last update, since preparing for the new cohort of MIS students and getting ready for classes has put blogging on a bit of a back burner. Well, classes are rolling now, and we have nearly 40 new graduate students this fall! The mix is roughly split between full-time MIS and part-time (Professional MIS and Certificate) students. We have so many great new students this semester that we are even experiencing a few growing pains... this is a wonderful challenge to have.

Most of our new students are taking Seminar in Systems Development and Data Management Systems in their first semester. Seminar in Systems Development explores modern challenges and opportunites in system analysis, design, and project management, and is taught by Dr. Viswanath Venkatesh. Data Management Systems takes a hands-on approach to learning how data is managed in modern organizations and how data can be turned into information for better and faster business decision making, and is taught by Dr. Paul Cronan.
