Enterprise Business Systems and Data Analytics Tracks

The Neff College of Business and Innovation has introduced two new tracks within its Information Systems major, focusing on Enterprise Business Systems and Business Analytics, to address the growing demand for skilled professionals in project management and data-driven decision-making.

June 2024: In the field of information systems, there are two prominent job growth areas: project management and business analytics. In that endeavor, the ISSCM department offers two distinct tracts that help prepare our students for their future careers. The Enterprise Business Systems track caters to individuals aspiring to become IS project managers. This curriculum emphasizes essential project management competencies, including project planning, requirements analysis, process automation, and other IS skills.
