The information technology management associate degree program at Shawnee State University is designed to meet the manpower demand of industries, government, and educational institutions.
In addition to theoretical fundamentals, practical aspects of computer systems in business are emphasized. Hands-on opportunity is provided and encouraged.
Graduates of this program are fully prepared to enter employment as computer programmers, web masters, or microcomputer specialists in computer installations or application departments. Graduates of this program receive an associate degree in applied business and are eligible to apply their associate degree courses towards a bachelors degree in business administration with a concentration in information systems management.
