MSBA in MIS
Rawls College of Business Administration
Texas Tech University

The MSBA in MIS at the Rawls College of Business Administration at Texas Tech University is designed to prepare today’s information technology professionals for tomorrow’s IT challenges. The program emphasizes strategic issues in the management of information technology. Course work focuses on issues in global IT management, systems integration, e-business, strategic decision making, communication and leadership skills, and management of information systems in organizations. Directed experience projects facilitate real-world learning opportunities. Training and preparation for project management and six sigma certifications are included as part of the curriculum.

The program is offered in an executive format on weekends over a two-year period, beginning in the fall and ending in the summer two years later. Courses are offered at Texas Tech in Lubbock (typically one weekend per month), with class times scheduled to permit people to arrive Saturday morning and leave late Sunday afternoon.

Admission to the program requires a bachelor’s degree from an accredited institution and work experience as an IT professional. The Graduate Management Aptitude Test (GMAT) is also required, but the applicant’s work experience and/or undergraduate grade point average are very important for admissions decisions.

Applications for the program are accepted for any semester.  If you have any questions or would like to discuss your options, please contact Dr. Glenn J. Browne at emsba@ba.ttu.edu or by phone at 806-742-2164 or 806-742-3192.
