COB's MIS Online Degree Program is No.1

Congratulations to the College of Business’ Department of Management Information Systems. TheBestSchools.org has ranked the department’s online bachelor’s degree program as the best of its kind. You can find out more about the rankings here.

The College’s MIS program recently graduated 33 students during the spring of 2018. The program also boasts a 100 percent job or graduate school placement rate, and during the 2017-18-time period, students completed almost 7,400 project hours for approximately 50 organizations.

About the program, TheBestSchools.org writes, “A cooperative education course allows students to supplement their education with hands-on work. ECU also requires students complete a nine-hour sequence in professional development and leadership, which includes a leadership capstone course that brings their undergraduate experience together in a hands-on project. Students also complete a portfolio that showcases projects and expertise for students’ use when seeking employment.”

“This ranking shows our faculty and college leadership are deeply committed to our students’ needs and success,” says Dr. Elaine Seeman, MIS department chair. “It also reflects the strong relationships we have with employers throughout the state and region.”

“I’m very proud of this acknowledgment.”
