Leaders at California State University, East Bay, in the College of Business and Economics decided to review and revise the MBA Program. The outcome was a program with fewer foundation courses, more core course requirements and fewer options. (Note that options are sometimes referred to as “areas of specialization” or “tracks.”) The Computer Information Systems option was revised and named Information Technology Management. CIS/ITM survived the reduction in options – for now.
