Indiana University has recently introduced a Master of Information Science (M.I.S.) degree program. The program educates professionals to create, organize and manage information effectively in diverse environments. It appeals to people working in information-related jobs who want to accelerate their careers and to people with arts and sciences undergraduate degrees who are interested in careers in information management, systems analysis and design, online searching and information brokerage, competitive intelligence and research analysis, network management, and database development and marketing. An important goal is to educate talented people so that they can be among the leaders of the information professions in the next century. Our M.I.S. graduates are prepared to take up responsible positions in both the public sector and private sectors.
This degree differs from the typical Masters degree in computer science or business because it teaches information system analysis (including Internet technologies) and design with a strong focus on behavioral and social analysis. The school, equipped with a new Usability Laboratory, also emphasizes experimentation with and evaluation of infoon technology. Students can choose among five major emphases, including Internet and Network Services, Information Retrieval, Information Architecture and Design, Systems Analysis and Information Organization and Management. Indiana University's M.I.S. degree program is offered in both Bloomington and Indianapolis.
