IDM

Welcome to the Department of Information and Decision Management

We offer a Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) in Computer Information System (CIS), and a MBA with an emphasis in CIS.

The Department of IDM in the College of Business offers coursework in information systems, business quantitative methods, and decision support. Our programs provide a strong foundation in business fundamentals and strategies, and managerial issues related to information technologies. Special interest is given to emerging technologies and their role as facilitators of strategic advantage in the marketplace.

We offer students comprehensive education in information and decision management including:

  • Software Engineering for Applications
  • Systems Analysis and Modeling
  • Networking and Data Communication
  • Network Security
  • Web-based Application Development
  • Database Management
  • Data Warehousing
  • User Interface Design and Data Visualization
CIS majors differ from computer science majors in emphasizing applications of computer systems over their development and analysis. The applications are focused on complex business needs in enterprises.

We also offer students education in related information systems areas:

  • Video Game Design
  • Artificial Intelligence and Decision Management
  • Project Management
  • Informatics and E-Medicine

Our hi-tech, hi-touch learning environment provides a rich experience that is not easily duplicated. We are able to electronically link our students with our computing resources. Our students are able to have access to the Department’s computing resources any time and from any where. Our faculty has a rich blend of teaching, research, and industry expertise, providing students with the conceptual and practical knowledge necessary to pursue a successful career in information systems development and/or management.
