Management Information Systems (MIS) Graduate Certificate

The Management Information Systems Graduate Certificate is a post-bachelor’s program for working professionals seeking to upgrade their management and technical skill sets to become more fluent in a technologically challenging environment.

This program is designed to meet the needs of working professionals and can be completed in one to two years, by taking one to two courses per semester, depending upon students’ schedule and availability. Students may take the program at Shippensburg University or at Central Penn in Harrisburg. Videoconferencing technology links students and faculty at these two locations in real time. Approximately one-third of each course is completed online. Each class is limited to twenty-five students, allowing students to interact directly with their faculty member on a regular basis.

Students interested in pursuing an MBA degree at Shippensburg University can apply two of the concentration courses toward meeting the MBA elective requirement.
