I am a freshman in college I am having a hard time deciding what to major in and both of them interest me so I have a few question about Computer information system and management information system


1.) What is the difference between CIS and MIS
2.) Which of these has better salary?
3.) Most importantly, which of these has more job security/prospect?

Thank you in advance.



Answer
Computer Science is not an option? I'd say it is the most widely respected and known and is pretty much essential if you want a job programming whether it is databases or business coding. It will teach things you won't learn in the other degrees such as:

Algorithms
Data Structures
Design Patterns
Low/High Level languages (such as Assembly, C/C++, Java, C#)
Software Architectures

It will also give you a lot more experience writing code, after the first year in CIS and MIS I don't believe you are required to write a lot of software anymore.

What can I do with a degree in Computer Information Systems?

There's a program at my local tech school where you get an associate's in computer technology from them and then transfer to a university and get a BA in Computer Information Systems. (Or you can choose Information Management and Systems.) What are the differences between these two and what kinds of jobs can you get? Thank you so much!


Answer
I don't personally know the answer, but the U.S. Dept. of Labor has a wonderful website that offers all the information you need and then some. http://www.bls.gov/oco/ - Occupational Outlook Handbook. It has a search function on the first page where you can enter your interests and it will give you all the education required information, list schools in your area, give you salary info as well and suggest other occupations related to that search.

Hope this helps.
