Information Systems Major
Information systems enable the invention, construction, and marketing of new products and services in every industry.
Students in the Information Systems program learn how networks drive economic activity at businesses, from data analytics to app development.
As companies introduce faster and more mobile technologies, they need visionaries who can integrate new services into existing businesses. In this major, you'll develop new computer science and programming talents and learn to build and deploy technologies like mobile apps. At the same time, you'll refine a core set of business and communication skills to ensure you're capable of working effectively in teams and making smart strategic recommendations to managers and executives.
Students who complete the Information Systems major at Stevens are well positioned to communicate with both the front and back offices of their companies, making them an invaluable resource as companies continue to expand their digital footprints.
