Accelerated BBA-CISS to MS-ISS
Undergraduate students may earn credit toward the Master of Science in Information Systems and Security (MS-ISS) degree while completing a Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) degree in Computer Information Systems and Security (CISS) through the CISS Accelerated Bachelor’s to Master’s (ABM) degree program. Students accepted into the CISS ABM program will be eligible to take two courses (six credit hours) from the list of MS-ISS courses below concurrently with their undergraduate courses. These two courses will count toward both the MS-ISS degree and the advanced CISS-related course requirement in the undergraduate CISS degree. The graduate courses also allow undergraduate students to build specific career-oriented focus areas that expand on advanced undergraduate course work.
Students in the CISS Accelerated Bachelor-to-Master (ABM) degree program must adhere to the following program restrictions, admission requirements, and deadlines:
