State University is pleased to provide a way for those with a college
degree in any discipline to acquire skills in the area of Information
Systems, with our new Virtual Learning Environment for the Master of Science
in Information Systems (MS-IS) program.
In today's complex and ever changing job market, skills in information technology are vital to keep pace. Our department offers this Masters program as a way to obtain those skills, whether you are a new professional in the field or an established professional wishing to update your skills (without the time and expense of obtaining a second bachelors degree).
Online students are able to take the exact same courses that our on-campus students take and receive the same degree from Tarleton State University, an institution that is regionally accredited and nationally recognized as prominent and innovative leaders in information systems education. |

You will use the Internet to interact with the course instructor and your classmates via e-mail, telephone, chat, and discussion board capabilities. Course material and assignments can be completed anywhere you have Internet access, at home, in the office, or on the road. The only activity requiring scheduling will be testing, either on campus or through a selected proctor in your area.
Students enrolled in the Virtual Learning Environment program complete core courses in a cohort. This approach helps students become better connected with other members of their cohort group. The cohort group is relatively small (15 to 20 students). This allows for maximum interaction among cohort members.
Online students are welcome to attend and take part in our graduation ceremonies. Online courses share all the advantages of on-campus courses with none of the scheduling limitations.
To pursue this degree, you need a college degree, acceptance to the College of Graduate Studies, Internet access, basic computer skills, time you schedule for yourself to complete the required course content and a desire to get a Master's degree in the exciting field of Information Systems. Today is your first step toward a new and challenging career in the I.T. industry! Get started now by completing an application for the Virtual Learning Environment Program.
