Why study a Masters in Information Systems?

Information Systems is a highly vocational subject area, but you may still be surprised to learn just how many different roles are available for IT postgraduates. Even the most obvious career path - working within a dedicated IT department - can involve a variety of employment scenarios.

You might be based in a small office, administering computer technology for a specialist business, or you work with IT infrastructure across a much larger organisation such as a university campus or banking network.

Other roles include managing information security (managing and protecting sensitive user data) or creating and maintaining websites and app services.

Of course, a postgraduate Information Systems qualification could also be attractive if you're already in work. IT is a rapidly developing field and many professionals find themselves returning to study in order to refresh or expand their training.
