Description:
The M.B.A. degree program develops the skills of management, the tools of
problem solving, the capacity for decision-making, and the knowledge about
formal organizations and their economic environment. The program prepares
graduates for leadership positions in a variety of managerial and
organizational settings. The course of study requires no background in
formal business education. Approximately one-third of the students in the
program enter with no previous business course work. The program of study
leading to the M.B.A. degree is a 30 semester hour program designed to
provide both a general view of business and a specialized focus through the
portfolio. Before beginning classes, each student must decide upon a
portfolio industry which allows specialized study in an area selected by the
student such as health care, the computer industry, engineering services,
etc. Five of the courses (ECP 6705, FIN 6406, ISM 6026, MAN 6511, and MAR
6815) require projects which will be included in each student’s portfolio.
Each student is expected to stay in contact with the M.B.A. Director
throughout the program concerning the development of the student’s
portfolio. During the last semester, the student is required to meet with
the M.B.A. Director to finalize the portfolio and to rewrite those sections
which may not meet the college’s standards.

Description:
Instructional Technology professionals provide critical assistance for
national and international education and training initiatives in the 21st
century. The M.Ed. in Instructional Technology prepares education, military,
and business and industry professionals to meet the challenges of complex
problems from the perspective of education and training. Developing
innovative solutions to organizational problems and providing for
just-in-time support to employees and learners permits students to develop a
variety of instructional technology-related skills. With the advent of the
information explosion, industry, the military, and educational systems look
for alternative and systematic strategies related to instructional
technology and instructional systems in the education and training of
employees and of children. Students in the M.Ed. program select courses from
a minimum of two specializations in addition to the program core
requirements. Graduates of the M.Ed. in Instructional Technology work in
curricular, instructional, performance or distance environments, designing,
producing, and evaluating instructional materials, and managing teams or
technology projects.

Description:
The Computer Science Department offers two graduate specializations:
Computer Science (CS) and Software Engineering (SE). Students entering the
CS specialization normally have an undergraduate degree in Computer Science
but may come from another scientific discipline. A graduate of this
specialization is a software and hardware specialist with a deep
understanding of the nature of algorithms in terms of expression,
development, resource usage and limitations. He/she is prepared to develop
software at any level of abstraction, from machine code to distributed
processes. He/she is prepared for a career as a programmer or advanced
software developer and may consider continuing on to Ph.D. studies. Students
entering the SE specialization may have an undergraduate degree in CS or CIS
but may also come from another discipline. A graduate of this specialization
is a system specialist, prepared to plan, configure, implement and maintain
computing systems. While he/she will have significant programming skills,
he/she will focus more on the whole life cycle including communication with
users, developing requirements, testing and deploying systems, and managing
the whole Software Engineering process. He/she may also be deeply familiar
with a specific problem domain (e.g. medical software, chemistry, data
acquisition systems, computer games, etc.) and with the software development
issues associated with that domain. Numerous local and regional companies
and governmental agencies employ computer science students in cooperative
education programs (co-op). The Department annually awards several
scholarships, fellowships, and out-of-state tuition waivers to new and
returning students. The department also has limited opportunities for
teaching/research assistantships for new and returning students.
