Curriculum
The computer information systems curriculum, endorsed by business and industry professionals, prepares students to analyze, design, implement and maintain information systems.
An information system is a set of people, procedures and resources that collects, transforms and disseminates information in an organization. In the past, “manual” and “informal” information systems were applied. “Pencil-and-paper” and “word-of-mouth” were used as key entities in these systems. Today, information systems are computer-based and are referred to as “computer information systems.”
The strength of the Nicholls State University CIS program is its well-qualified and caring faculty members. Students are able to interact with faculty members on a one-on-one basis when necessary. Access to a range of state-of-the-art computers ranging from microcomputers to mainframes is available over the campus-wide network.
