Minor in Management of Information Technologies

Modern digital enterprises have created a strong demand for individuals who understand the contributions of information technologies to their success in a rapidly changing economics landscape that is global in scope. This unique minor meets this demand by addressing the needs of two distinct groups of students.

The first group consists of students with a strong background in computing or engineering (non-business majors) who need a firm grasp of important business concepts and practices.

The second group comprises business students (students not in the School of Engineering and Applied Science) who need a solid foundation in computing or engineering technologies. Three separate tracks are offered for these students:
