Beschreibung des Programms

What is an Information Systems Degree?

Florida Tech’s BS in Information Systems program integrates business concepts and technology skills for developing information systems for a competitive advantage in the global market. The program focuses on practical applications of current and emerging technologies for the strategic support of an organization’s technical goals and offers areas of emphasis in database management and information assurance.

Whether you want to be a data manager, customer technology specialist, or the developer of the next new business intelligence system, an information systems degree from Florida Tech gives you hands-on experience in business and management.

Why Pursue an Information Systems Degree at Florida Tech?

When a computer network is down, a company’s capacity to function effectively is compromised. That is why organizations look to knowledgeable information systems experts to meet the challenges that a complex field of information technology presents. If you have the desire to enter this field as a critical member of any company’s IT department or support team, choose Florida Tech, one of the best information systems colleges.

An Intimate Learning Environment — Low Student-Faculty Ratio

One of the reasons why students choose the Nathan M. Bisk College of Business at Florida Tech as one of the best information systems colleges is because the learning environment is a tight-knit department with small class sizes, something not often found in larger institutions. With small class sizes, applying Florida Tech’s “human touch” approach to student learning allows for personalized interaction with faculty mentors. With student success of utmost importance at Florida Tech, professors make sure that information systems students are privy to valuable industry knowledge and expertise.

As an information systems student, you will have:

  • Award-winning faculty who are experienced in both teaching and research
  • An indispensable information systems laboratory in the Nathan M. Bisk College of Business that can run a medium-sized company
  • Access to valuable leaders from local industry such as Leonardo DRS, Harris Corporation, General Electric, Northrop Grumman, and Rockwell Collins
  • Opportunities to volunteer with the Space Coast Project Management Institute local chapter

Located in the Heart of Florida’s High-Tech Corridor

Florida Tech is the perfect place for a BS in Information Systems. The 130-acre campus is located on the Space Coast (so named because of the presence of NASA and the Kennedy Space Center on Cape Canaveral just north of us), minutes away from the Indian River Lagoon, the most diverse estuary in North America.

The area has the fifth-largest high-tech workforce in the country, with more than 5,000 high-tech corporations and government and military organizations located nearby. This workforce also provides an abundance of internship and employment opportunities.

Florida Tech is just over the causeway from the Atlantic Ocean with its 72 miles of beautiful beaches, and a short trip to the Florida Keys or the Orlando theme parks. We also have a rich campus life that includes a wide range of intramural and collegiate sports, clubs, and social activities.

Build Lasting Professional Relationships through Campus Organizations

Beyond the classroom, information systems degree majors build leadership experience through exciting internships and participation in academic organizations like the Society for Advancement of Management, student government, and over 100 other campus-wide student organizations.

Florida Tech’s chapter of Delta Mu Delta, a business honor society, serves to recognize outstanding Nathan M. Bisk College of Business students. It also serves as a networking opportunity to connect members with information systems internships and careers around the nation and the world.

The Florida Tech Entrepreneurs Club regularly holds meetings for members to discuss business ventures and ideas and to interact with local entrepreneurs. Internships, research, and networking in clubs and organizations are all great ways for students to find career opportunities and information systems internships.

Campus-Based Research Opportunities

There are also many opportunities for hands-on learning, particularly through our Center for Entrepreneurship and New Business Development, which focuses on entrepreneurial education, global innovation, and practical research in pursuit of new venture creation, sustainability, social value creation, and venture acceleration; and our Center for Ethics and Leadership, which promotes the practice of ethical behavior and effective leadership by engaging in activities that provide a forum for research, discussion, and a better understanding of ethics and leadership among all stakeholders in society. Key initiatives in the global management program include an ethics and leadership breakfast, an intercollegiate ethics competition, a leadership conference, and projects about corporate social responsibility.

It All Started With 37 Cents

Florida Tech was founded in 1958 as "Brevard Engineering College." It all started as an idea in the mind of Jerome P. Keuper, a visionary physicist working at Cape Canaveral.

As university lore would have it, Keuper expressed his desire to create a scientific and technological university to a friend over drinks at a local pub. Overhearing the conversation, a fellow patron pushed 37 cents in change across the bar and said, “There’s your first donation, Jerry. Now, go and build that college.”

So, Keuper did. And what started with 37 cents as a night school for the early “missilemen” of the U.S. space program is now a comprehensive national research university recognized worldwide for excellence in preparing students for careers of the future.

  • Research for the Benefit of All Humankind
  • Education for a Lifetime of Success

We Are Florida Tech

We are a community of researchers, scholars, and learners hailing from all around the world. We are engineers, aviators, innovators, leaders, educators, athletes, and astronauts.

We Have Panther Pride

You may feel it the first time you visit the campus, the day you graduate, or at some point in between. But when you do, you’ll see that Panther Pride is more than school spirit. It’s a family.

We Make Connections

Florida Tech is proud to be part of the Brevard County community and welcomes its neighbors to explore the many personal, professional, corporate, and cultural opportunities we have to offer.
