From pioneering one of the early MIS programs 3-decades ago in 1974 and championing the development of an IS Curriculum in partnership with Association of Computing Machinery (ACM), the faculty members in the MIS department at the Eller College of Management, at The University of Arizona have been at the forefront of IS education and research.

With over 80 million in research grants and other state and industry support, our program has initiated and participated in cutting edge research in many fields (e.g. group systems, artificial intelligence, and data management among others) while educating over 3500 undergraduate, 1200 graduate and 150 doctoral students. U.S. News and World Report has ranked the UA MIS program among the top 5 in the nation, not once but for 19 consecutive years.

The department offers three levels of education in MIS:

• Undergraduate (Bachelor of Science in Business Administration) with majors in:
   - Management Information Systems
   - Operations Management
   - MIS/Operations Management (Double Major)
• Masters in Management Information Systems
• Doctor of Philosophy in Management with a major in Management Information Systems
