¹The Computer Information Systems (CIS) and Enterprise Information Systems (EIS) majors are being phased out, students in these majors can decide to finish or change over to the new Management Information Systems (MIS) major, introduced Fall 2016. To allow for more quick comparisons, a subtotal combining CIS/EIS/MIS has been added.
²These programs have been discontinued.
In cases of reorganization at the university, the prior years’ information is also listed with the current structure to allow easier and more consistent comparison across time (see Appendix B for more info).
