The Diploma in Management Information Systems is run online and provides direct entry to the Bachelor of Business Administration programme at Northwood University with an accelerated option into the Northwood DeVos MBA programme.
Business is at the heart of today’s digital world. Companies communicate, handle transactions and share information using digital technology – and, they need someone to help them keep all systems running. A BBA in Management Information Systems degree from Northwood University positions you to do just that.
Beginning on day one, you’ll study programming language, the infrastructure of operating systems and networks, graphics and web design. You’ll even learn how to design and implement complex databases.
And, you’ll get hands-on experience with immersion into the real world through internships, guest speakers and our capstone project that ensures you know how to address an organization’s IT needs and build a system that meets them.
Leading a business means more than just being in charge.
