Earn your Master's in Management Information Systems Online!

The online Management Information Systems graduate degree from the University of Illinois at Springfield can be earned online with no campus visits. Because we are a public university, our online graduate degree is less expensive than that of the University of Phoenix and other private universities. Students pursuing our online MIS degree pay the same low tuition rate whether they live in Illinois or some other state.

Beginning in Fall 2003, out-of-state students enrolled as a major in an online degree program and taking only online classes pay the same tuition as in-state students. Click here for more information.

This online degree in MIS has a balance between technical courses and business courses, which makes it ideal for capping-off an undergraduate degree in any field. Because of its managerial orientation, this degree should be considered by anyone contemplating an online MBA, as well as those interested in management information systems, computer information systems, information technology (IT), computer science, the management of technology or public/non-profit administration.

This MIS online degree is a part of U of I Online, a coordinated effort of the three University of Illinois campuses (Springfield, Chicago & Urbana-Champaign). Classes are taught by full-time faculty and are highly interactive. In many ways our Internet-based courses are like taking on-campus courses except there is more interaction between students and instructors, and among fellow students, than in traditional classes. Interaction is asynchronous, meaning it can be done any time from anywhere, making it an ideal degree for those who travel or have busy schedules that preclude taking classes on campus.

The University of Illinois at Springfield is accredited by the NCA, the highest level of institutional accreditation available. In addition, UIS online degrees have been approved for membership in Sloan Foundation's Sloan-C program, a consortium of accredited institutions committed to quality distance education.
