Whats the difference between Computer Science and Management Information Systems?
Both computer science and MIS professionals are interested in technology. Computer science focuses on the internal workings of technology and on improving technology itself – making it faster, smarter and easier to use. MIS focuses on how people, business processes and technology interact to meet an organization’s goals. In MIS, the attention is more on how companies use the technology to meet their needs. Computer science answers the question: How can we make technology work better? MIS answers the question: How can we help people work smarter using technology?
