Overview

The Master of Science degree in Information Technology (MSIT) provides information systems and computer science professionals with the opportunity to acquire technical knowledge in a variety of specialized information technology fields and the management skills to create, plan, organize, lead, and control the information technology in their organizations. This program is best suited for students with a technical background and preferably with an undergraduate or graduate degree in information systems or computer science. Information technology managers require a different education than that offered by a general Master of Business Administration (MBA) program, in today’s rapidly changing technological environment. In addition to an in-depth scientific or engineering knowledge and on-the-job experience, they must have substantial managerial knowledge about planning and leading technical and scientific projects, directing information technology system design, developing professional and technical employees and integrating the various functions of the organization. Earn a Master of Science in Information Technology while developing expertise in cyber security. The UTSA MSIT Cyber Security concentration is designed to provide information technology professionals with the essential technical and business skills necessary to become a well-versed cyber professional. Students learn how to protect data, gather and examine digital evidence, perform security risk assessments, develop secure software and protect computer networks. As part of this 33-credit-hour degree program in the Carlos Alvarez College of Business, studnets will develop specialized expertise in the area of cyber security.

OPT and STEM OPT eligibility depend on maintaining F-1 status and on the program. A program counts as STEM only when its CIP code is on the official STEM list — not because its name sounds technical.
