The information systems concentration at the Haskayne School of Business offers students a unique opportunity to study a blend of traditional management practice and theory with technical information systems topics, such as database management and systems design. I transferred to Haskayne from computer science, as it expanded my scope of study to include bigger organizational implications. My favourite part of the program was having the opportunity to work with a local non-profit organization to redesign its internal systems.
