As business has evolved and become more dependent on IT infrastructure and the role it plays in the overall strategy of a company, the need to decipher and present technical concepts in a manner clear to a business-minded audience has become undeniably essential.
This challenge of translating technical information has fallen to the IT leader - and the ability to speak in a language not indicative of their specialized education and experience often leaves a communication gap which can stand in the way of progress.
Until now.
Northwestern University's Master of Science in Information Technology (MSIT) program was developed for information technology professionals who want to deepen and broaden their technical skills while learning business principles.
Designed for those with experience in the workplace, the program encompasses both technology and business courses, a diverse student body, and coursework taught by academic professors and leading executives to prepare its graduates to strategically plan, implement, and manage information technology systems.
The combined skill set of understanding how to successfully leverage technological proficiency with business acumen defines the MSIT graduate and enables them to bring impactful value to businesses across a broad range of industries.
