About the Program
Information Systems Emphasis
The use of information technology is pervasive in the business world today. The field of Information Systems maximizes the efficiency of technology so that organizations derive a better return on their technological investment. As such, information system professionals are extremely valuable to an organization's bottom line.
Focus of Study
The Information Systems emphasis helps prepare students for our technology-centric world. The information systems curriculum includes an introduction to basic computer hardware and software, programming, databases, and networking, along with the fundamentals of analysis, design, and project management.
Program Requirements
Each candidate for the Bachelor of Science-Business degree in the Professional Program must complete the prescribed courses in an area of emphasis comprising a minimum of 18 - 24 semester hours taken at UCCS in addition to the required courses in the Business degree.
To earn a professional area of emphasis, a grade point average of 2.5 is required for the area of emphasis courses, with no grade below a C-; a 2.5 cumulative GPA is required for all business courses; and a 2.0 GPA is required overall. Students who graduate with an area of emphasis and/or business grade point averages from 2.0 to 2.49 will not earn an area of emphasis. All attempts of emphasis courses will be calculated into a student's GPA.
By completing extra courses, a student can earn a second area of emphasis. To earn a double area of emphasis, a student must fulfill all the requirements for both areas. If there are not at least 15 hours of unique courses in the areas, then the student cannot earn a double area of emphasis.
