Bachelor [Computing Science- Information Systems] From Jacksonville University

We encourage students to gain additional hands-on experience through internships and research with the faculty. Students who wish to participate in undergraduate research may do so by registering for Independent Student courses with particular faculty members.

Our faculty offer a broad range of expertise and are here to help our students grow and succeed. We combine the values of a liberal arts institution with scientific training in order to prepare our students for a wide range of employment and professional programs.

Computing has strong connections to other disciplines. Many problems in science, engineering, health care, business and other areas can be solved effectively with computers, but finding a solution requires both computer expertise and knowledge of the particular application domain. A major in Information Systems is designed to meet that need.

Information Systems is an interdisciplinary major that enables students to combine computer science courses with other disciplines. The major is designed to provide students with a strong academic background in computing within the context of an increasingly technology-driven society. The focus of the major is on practical applications of technology to support different environments. A number of concentrations or tracks were developed in collaboration with faculty in other areas. Students plan, coordinate, direct and implement computer systems and computer related activities in areas they identify to concentrate their additional studies.
