The M.S. in Management information Systems is offered only in a cohort (blended delivery) model to international students in a joint partnership with the Shenyang Jianzhu University in Shenyang, China.
The program is designed for professionals who understand the strategic value of information resources and the importance of managing these resources throughout an organization. Benedictine offers an innovative course of professional graduate study that integrates the body of knowledge in information technology with the student’s choice of a concentration, such as Accounting and Financial Systems, Business Administration, Business Analytics, Finance, Health Information Systems Management, Information Security, Integrated Marketing Communications, Management and Organizational Behavior, Professional Internship, and Project Management. These concentrations are not only applicable to students’ professions, but are also key in broadening students’ perspectives. By effectively combining management information systems with a concentration, students become technically proficient and able to address issues such as the creative and appropriate application of information technology, the effective management of information technology and the organizational and societal impacts of information technology.
The M.S. program in Management Information Systems at Benedictine University has been preparing professionals for rapid advances in technology, intense global competition and more complex business environments for more than 30 years.
The educational approach of the program emphasizes practical application of various business management theories and technical tools to a variety of hypothetical and real-life information problems. Students gain an appreciation for the complexity of challenges associated with the management of information technology through group interaction, comprehensive projects, case analysis, research and active participation in the sharing of individual experience. It is through this variety of teaching methods that students are prepared to be leaders in the 21st century.
Benedictine’s Master of Science in Management Information Systems program allowed me to gain real-world skills in an environment that welcomed participation and my previous knowledge. I wanted to add information management skills to my nursing portfolio to be ready for the technology challenges of an evolving health care system. Benedictine helped by offering flexible learning that included weekend classes, electives that were applicable to my work and required classes that broadened my perspective.
