Computer Information Systems (CIS-M)
In this age of technology, the demand for information systems (IS) professionals is greater than ever; however, working professionals often are unable to complete their degree or add a second major in a traditional college setting. The CIS-Mobile, or CIS-M, courses can easily be accessed from anywhere through multiple technologies allowing the student flexibility while adding valuable training to their skill set.
A requirement for many positions, the CIS major is designed to prepare students for a wide variety of careers, such as programmers, network managers, management information systems directors, and systems project leaders for applications in business, industry and government.

professionals and/or non-degree seeking students. (Non-degree seeking students who complete the major requirements will receive a Certificate in Computer Information Systems.) CIS-M courses are offered with on-site and online courses being taught simultaneously within each semester/term.
CIS-M courses follow the ACM Curricular Model and mirror those available to traditional on-site students at Milligan.
