Overview

To serve the economic interests of industry and the evolving needs of society in a challenging, rapidly changing, global environment, the Department of Business and Information Technology capitalizes on the strong technological emphasis of Missouri S&T to enable individuals to excel in a technology-centric business world. Recognizing this rapid evolution of the marketplace, we create and disseminate knowledge impacting the theory and practice of business.

The Department of Business and Information Technology features the University's undergraduate degrees in Business and Management Systems and Information Science and Technology as well as a Master of Science in Information Science and Technology (MS in IST), and Master of Business Administration (MBA) programs. These popular programs combine two of the factors most critical to a successful organization: knowledge of business disciplines and information technology expertise. The Business and Management Systems program is designed for students who who may have an entrepreneurial flare and/or wish to work in a fast-paced business environment, while the Information Science and Technology program is for students interested in working with solving business and management problems using information technology resources. Another innovation in a forward-thinking department, the Department of Business and Information Technology's MBA is offered completely online using state-of-the-art distance technology classrooms. The distance model allows students to choose to interact directly with professors and fellow classmates during a lecture or view materials at a later time asynchronously. Top undergraduate students have the opportunity to dual enroll in graduate school for either the MBA or the MS in IST.
