Career Opportunities & Internships

<p>Does anyone have more information on what happens after you get a bachelor's degree for this specific profession? So far I'm thinking major in MIS for bachelors and going straight into an MBA with a Management Information Systems focus. But I'm entirely unsure on whether or not the job market looks great for folks who graduate from a 4-year university. For example, are internships readily available and are job openings looking forward to having new grads?</p>

<p>All I know is that the pay scale and job openings are quite good right now (according to a plethora of websites including bls.gov), but I think that may be for people with experience. </p>

<p>In other words, it's basically like asking if the job opportunities during and after college are similar to Accounting</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>Hmm, well I’m majoring in Accounting Information Systems right now, so that should open up both Accounting and MIS jobs for me</p>

<p>In the old days, you could get business programming or DBA jobs with a CIS degree. Today, a lot of companies are favoring CS majors for these kinds of jobs - I think that is shortsighted because the CIS degree gives you understanding the environment that you will be working in but you can’t argue with what hiring managers do.</p>
