Information for Current Students
Congratulations! You are now a student in the M.S. in Information Systems Technology program offered by
the Department of Information Systems
and Technology Management of the School of Business at The George Washington University.
The GW MS-IST program offers you the opportunity to develop a strong foundation of current IS skills and to learn how to more effectively utilize information systems technology to solve the problems facing business and government organizations today and in the future. We encourage you to make the most of your academic experiences by challenging yourself to go beyond the faculty members' expectations. Graduate-level work is demanding, but we think you will find it rewarding both personally and professionally.
In addition to your course work, your faculty and fellow students represent an invaluable resource of practical field knowledge, international experiences, and industry-specific expertise. We encourage you to take the time to get to know your classmates, as they have the potential of becoming your strongest professional colleagues. The metropolitan DC/Northern Virginia technology community also represents a unique opportunity for you to become involved in special events, conferences, and social gatherings that can enhance your knowledge of the field.
We hope that you will take full advantage of all that is offered both inside and outside the classroom to make the most of your GW MS-IST experience. If we can assist you along the way, please let us know.
