Whats the difference between a masters in MIS and an MBA with a MIS concentration?
While both an MBA with a focus on information systems/technology and a Master of Information Systems degree will prepare you to assume managerial positions within the field of MIS, the MBA degree will provide you with more general skills that are transferable to other areas. The master’s will provide you with greater information systems expertise, but fewer transferable skills. The MBA degree’s broad curriculum also helps MIS professionals with client management and other strategic issues in performing their jobs, especially in management advisory services.
