What is MIS?
Management Information Systems (MIS) sits at the intersection of business and technology. MIS professionals use data, systems, and strategy to help organizations make smarter decisions and operate more effectively.​
​
The field encompasses areas such as data science/analytics, cybersecurity, project management, consulting, business analysis, and systems design, preparing students to lead technology-driven initiatives across virtually any industry.
VISION
Bridging the transition from student to professional.
The MIS Society is where CSUSM students build momentum. We bring in guest speakers, run career-building sessions, and connect students to a community that’s serious about internships, leadership, and real opportunities.
We are a collection of students and faculty who are focused on the professional success of our members. Some key perks of becoming a member are:
-
Guest speakers + real Q&A (not just presentations)
-
Internship prep (resume, LinkedIn, interviews, recruiting strategy)
-
Career clarity (roles explained, paths mapped, confidence built)
-
Community (meet people who actually show up and grow)
