MIS Electives
| MIS 381 Selected MIS graduate topics are offered each semester. Undergraduates may register for these as a MIS 379 (supervised study) if the instructor agrees. MIS 379 counts as an upper-division business elective. In your last semester you may take these graduate courses as MIS 381 classes rather than arrange a substitute MIS 379. | |
