summer research support, are competitive and depend on the qualifications
and experience of the candidate.

*Department of MIS, Operations Management, & Decision Sciences*
<https://www.udayton.edu/business/academics/undergraduate/mis_om_and_decision_sciences/index.php>The
Department of MIS, Operations Management, & Decision Sciences offers
undergraduate majors and minors in MIS and Operations and Supply Management
(OPS). We also offer MBA certificates in Business Analytics, Business
Intelligence, Business Systems Development, Cyber-Security Management and
Project Management, and additional undergraduate minors in Business
Analytics, Business Intelligence and Cyber-Security Management. The
Department also supports business undergraduates and MBA students with
courses in MIS, OPS, Business Analytics, and Statistics. Core MIS major
requirements include systems analysis and design, project management,
database management, and application development. A distinctive feature of
the undergraduate MIS major is a two semester, applied capstone sequence
wherein students develop useful IS solutions for local business
organizations. The curriculum is designed to facilitate double majors.
Currently, the MIS major averages about 40 graduates per year, who are
typically very well placed in the job market.  The Department faculty are
well known for their research, teaching, and professional service. Faculty
accomplishments include publishing numerous articles in major academic
journals and serving in editorial positions of leading academic journals
and as key officers in major professional organizations.  MIS faculty
publications may be viewed at:

An MIS Advisory Board, composed of senior MIS executives from local and
national organizations, regularly interacts with the Department faculty and
students and provides guidance in areas such as curriculum development,
research activities, and student employment. The MIS Advisory Board is also
a valuable source of student projects and guest speakers in courses.  An
MIS Distinguished Speaker series invites at least one highly-accomplished
scholar in the MIS arena to visit the Department every year. The Department
has a similar advisory board and speaker series in Operations Management.
