"A bad system will beat a good person every time." — E. Deming
Management Information Systems (MIS) is about managing how and why people, organizations, and markets apply, design, and deploy information technology to achieve tactical and strategic business goals. MIS is about the integration of both areas of expertise and applying the power of technology to solving business problems.
A MIS Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) is the most common degree at the highest academic level awarded following a course of study in MIS. Because it is an earned research degree, those studying for a PhD are required to produce original research that expands the boundaries of knowledge, normally in the form of a thesis or dissertation, and defend their work before a panel of other experts in the field.
