MBA
I just came across a new degree for information folks, an MBA in Management of Information. The University of Texas has one.
Student take the core courses of the MBA program and graduate with that degree. In addition, they take a set of core courses in Information Management introducing them to key management concepts involving the design, construction, and control of information processing activities within an organization; the strategic role of information technology in rapidly changing business environments; and the new business models and competitive strategies emerging from the electronic marketplace.
Does anyone have any experience with this degree?
