Truly, we felt we were working with a group of high quality, young Data Sciences consultants — a testament to the high caliber of what UTA has built in their MSBA and MSIS programs. This has been an incredibly positive experience at every step of the way — from engaging the administrators and world-class professors to the day-to-day with the students.”

    “When I enrolled for my master’s in Management Information Systems, I could not have been more pragmatic than I choose the correct path. During the coursework, I learned the importance of networking by building the relationship with professor and peers. The coursework not only helped me to appreciate the technological part of the business but the creative human aspect as well. The department has prepared me enough to secure the Internship in a top manufacturing company at Intel Corporation. For a person like me, if anyone has curiosity in technology and Business, this major is for you!.”
