Most popular internships for Information Systems
Information Systems majors can complete IS-451 (CBA Management Information Systems Internship) for credit towards the IS major. IS-451 satisfies the elective credit requirement in the IS major.
In order to earn credit for IS-451, students must satisfy all of the following prerequisite requirements: cumulative GPA of at least 2.50; ACC 221, ACC 222; BLAW 205; ECO 110, ECO 120, ECO 230; FIN 355; IS 220; MGT 308; MKT 309 and admission to the College of Business.
