I have been studying at U Akron for 2.5 years. I was forced to take too many redundant courses although I have taken them in my undergraduate degree. The master of science in information systems management MSM is not practical and supportive to help me get the sufficient knowledge. The program consists of a few information systems-focused courses. This is because that the BC lacks the sufficient number of professors to tach this program. If you think of studying Master of Science in IS don't study here because you will waste your time. The BC changed the plans for the master programs, including MS in IS, and forced the current students to take some courses in the new plans.
