<p>I am deciding between these two schools. Pomona offers computer information systems, and long beach offers management information systems. Both of these are considered under the "business administration program"</p>
<p>Which would be a better pick?</p>
<p>Anyone? Is there a better place to ask?</p>
<p>If you mean Pomona the CMC-related school, then go there hands down. CIS is I think roughly similar to MIS, except maybe slightly more coding oriented, which is good. I would go with CIS + Pomona without a doubt.</p>
<p>CIS at cal poly pomona. Is CIS a stronger degree? Wouldnt an MIS degree help one move up in the ranks though?</p>
<p>To move up to management positions later on, you’ll likely need an MBA with either. Since the M in MIS is management already, you’d be better diversified with CIS+MBA than MIS+MBA. </p>
<p>That is, if you are interested in coding.</p>
<p>Well I am down to either being a network administrator or a database administrator (oracle or something similar). Im really not crazy about programming/coding so I am not sure yet. </p>
<p>There are a total of 4 subdivisions in the MIS department at CSULB. Cal Poly pomona only offers a general CIS degree. This is one of the things I like about CSULB’s program.</p>
<p>Here are the 3 that I would be interested in at CSULB:</p>
<p>Applications Development - This track prepares graduates for careers as business systems analysts, applications programmers, support specialists, software trainers, database designers and administrators to name just a few. </p>
<p>Business Telecommunications - The telecommunications emphasis allows majors to serve the industry demand for telecommunications and computer network specialists and administrators</p>
<p>Decision Technologies - This track prepares graduates for careers as business analysts, system support managers, and consultants that use analytical and quantitative methods to understand and improve business processes</p>
<p>Obviously, Applications Development for Databases, and Business Telecommunications for networking. What does this third program go into though?</p>
