The primary mission is to prepare graduates to conduct top-quality basic and applied research in Information Systems. In addition, the program includes a commitment to practical relevance, an emphasis on producing quality teachers, a research apprenticeship requirement, and interdisciplinary research.
Students graduated recent years were invited by some top universities for faculty positions including Florida International University, James Madison University, University of Massachusetts Amherst, and the University of Toledo, among others. Provide training in basic and advanced information systems theory and practice so that students master the technical and conceptual tools needed for conducting high-quality IS research.
Provide advanced, specialized training in a number of IS disciplines such as enterprise resource planning, global information technology, information resource management, artificial intelligence, data mining, data warehousing, e-commerce, knowledge management, and supply chain management so that students acquire expertise that can be applied in a wide range of academic, government and private sector environments.
Afford structured and supervised research experiences so that students develop the technical, conceptual, and communication skills that are required to conduct high-quality, independent research. Full-time students will be awarded a tuition waiver and a graduate assistantship requiring 20 hours of work per week.
The assistantship requires the student to work on teaching- and research-related activities. A Bryan School scholarship named after Joseph and his wife Kathleen is awarded to undergraduate and graduate business students based on academic merit. Online programs are ideal for working adults who require asynchronous scheduling with the option of evening or weekend classes and meetings.
Many online PhD programs are hybrids that require an on-campus presence at certain points throughout the program. When determining whether an online or in-person program is right for you, consider answering the following questions. Do you have the time to travel to and from campus along with completing the research and writing? What other commitments do you have that limit the time and energy needed to complete a PhD?
Your answers should help you choose between an on campus and online program as well as jump-start your initial list of university options, which should be narrowed down before you reach the final step: applying to one or more universities.
The PhD emphasis in most disciplines is a theoretical approach. Your academic goal as a PhD in Information Systems student is to learn and test established theories that will lead you to derive a theory of your own.
As you peruse the course requirements for each potential university, you may notice the use of the term seminars. Seminars are discussion-based as opposed to traditional lectures where the professors speak at the students. Some PhD programs combine seminars with lectures in terms of the type of courses offered. Others may only incorporate the lecture environment. The course topics for a PhD in Information Systems usually include theories in information systems, qualitative and quantitative research in information systems along with technical applications via statistics, analytics, and machine learning.
Many programs offer a concentration option such as healthcare, cybersecurity or analytics. Completing a PhD comes with financial and opportunity costs. This is not guaranteed. About the Program. Our program offers access to a unique group of world-class faculty who conduct research in the following areas: Human-computer interaction; decision support systems and online decision-making Website design and signaling; Online consumer impulsiveness; B2C electronic commerce strategy Social media affordances; online reviews; ranking algorithms Societal impacts such as social media driven online activism and social protest Algorithms, AI, bias and transparency IS use and post-adoptive cognitions, emotions, and behaviors both negative and positive Big data analytics use and strategy IS and wellbeing Healthcare systems implementation and use.
