Specializations

UBT INFORMATION SYSTEMS SPECIALIZATIONS

 

The IS curriculum is designed to produce graduates equipped to function in entry level information systems positions with a strong basis for continued career growth. The curriculum reflects input from both industry and universities. It responds to industry requests for both increased emphasis in technical orientation and improved skill in individual and group interactions. The curriculum requires an embedded problem solving and critical thinking framework in all courses.  The curriculum has formal information systems courses but also assumes use of prerequisite courses in communications, mathematics, and statistics, and business functions. The communications prerequisite courses should provide students with listening skills and the knowledge to be effective in written and oral communication. The mathematics and statistics prerequisites should provide basic quantitative and qualitative techniques. The business courses should cover common business functions, economics, and international considerations.

 

In this way we don’t have division of specializations in the IS Bachelor program since its curriculum structure is more a general one.
