What's New About the Program?

Some course names and numbers have changed. You will need to use the new names and numbers—as listed in the Study Plan(s)—to register in the fall 2007 semester and beyond.

To continue with your current requirements
You only need to use the new course names and numbers as indicated in your Study Plan. However, if you are currently in the MS in information technology program, you may find your existing coursework aligns with one of the new specializations.
