Online Master of Science in Information Technology Management

Taking IT from Cost Center to Business Motivator

Smart businesses are leveraging the three primary areas of Information Technology – network, functional and enterprise – to not only support their business objectives, but also advance them. Successful businesses, governmental organizations and enterprises recognize IT as a strategic business motivator rather than simply as a cost center, and invest in their IT operations – and technical personnel – in order to deliver business value and stay nimble in the face of rapidly changing business conditions.

Today’s most valuable IT leaders are equipped to recognize, develop, implement and support technological opportunities to provide their organizations with necessary competitive advantage in the marketplace.

Online Master of Science in Information Security

Information Security is of Increasing Importance

With the pervasive growth of Cloud computing, mobile devices and Web-based applications, Information Security issues are of growing importance, both nationally and internationally. As news about severe security breaches tops the headlines on a regular basis, virtually every business, governmental organization and enterprise must be proactive in protecting themselves against malicious security attacks, while still preparing for disaster survival and recovery.

Information security professionals are increasingly in demand in both the private and public sectors as massive amounts of sensitive personal and business data migrate to the vast array of cyber networks that are growing exponentially each year.

 

Master of Science in Bioinformatics

Computational biology: a booming field

Biotechnology and pharmaceutical organizations are increasingly making bioinformatics an integral part of their research processes. Science and other trade publications have identified computational biology as a job-growth field as these industries seek to make use of vast amounts of genomic data and to produce more complex and accurate models of biological processes. The mathematical, statistical, and computational methods of bioinformatics promise to produce more comprehensive explanatory models and to improve global health technologies.

Professionals able to adapt information technology and complex computational approaches to the particular problems of contemporary biotechnology and pharmaceutical organizations promise to lead innovation in these industries.

 

Master of Science in Health and Medical Informatics

Evolving health care reform and improved patient records open doors for IT managers

Massive growth in the cost of health care and increasingly extensive biomedical data systems have made health and medical informatics lively areas of expansion within the health care industry. Organizations are turning to information technology to improve efficiency and cut costs even as they harness it to deliver better health care to individuals and populations. At the same time, richer patient information storage requires heightened efforts by health organizations to ensure patient privacy and organizational information security.

The industry needs health and information technology professionals with the skills to develop, manage, and evaluate information technology systems in order to improve health care for patients and practitioners.
