An Information Systems (IS) major sits between computer science and business, covering systems analysis and design, databases and SQL, business process modeling, enterprise applications (ERP, CRM), data analytics, project management, and IT governance. Most programs are housed in a business school and pair technical coursework with accounting, finance, management, and economics, so graduates can translate between technical teams and the people who use the systems.

IS graduates typically work as the link between business needs and technical implementation: gathering requirements, mapping workflows, specifying and configuring systems, and analyzing data to support decisions. Many roles map to the computer systems analyst occupation, for which the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reports a 2024 median wage of $103,790 and projects 8.7% employment growth from 2024 to 2034. Graduates are employed across industries, including finance, healthcare, consulting, manufacturing, and government.
