Meet Ms. Sangeeta Jina, M.S. (https://youtu.be/WUEwbLBW3TM), one of our former international undergrad-uate and graduate students. Ms. Jina has been able to apply her skills and education in order to get a job after graduation. But, don’t take our word for it. Listen to what she has to say about her experiences here at Tarleton State University, our program, our faculty, and advice on being successful in your studies as one of our students.
Meet Dr. Del Nagy (https://youtu.be/okv4UHwFl2U), one of our outstanding BCIS faculty. Bringing practical work experi-ence in to the classroom, Dr. Nagy teaches a lot of our systems analysis and design classes as well as our database classes. He works individually with students on research projects and is one of our faculty sponsors for our AITP chapter, our student organ-ization for CIS students. Dr. Nagy has a passion for what he does and brings an energy level that helps drive and motivate students.
Based on an alumni survey of our BS-CIS graduates, our former students work for: Wise Health System Texas Health Resources Fort Worth I.S.D. Hill School Foster’s Home for Children Coleman County Telephone Cooperative According to the same student survey, most students report making $50,000 to $65,000+ in annual salary. Job titles include systems analyst, programmer, network specialist, VP of physical plant, director of technology, graphic de-signer, and system application specialist II. Given that the Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that Com-puter and Information Systems Managers job outlook is poised to grow 15% (much faster than average) from 2014 to 2024, it is a great time to be looking at information sys-tems as a major. Our BAAS-IT, BBA-CIS, BS-CIS, and MS-IS programs are all designated as STEM programs as defined by the Depart-ment of Homeland Security (DHS). This designation has a direct impact on international students interested in these programs as it allows those with F-1 visas to remain in the United States after graduation for an additional 24 months under the optional practical training STEM extension. This extension makes it possible for students to undertake practi-cal training for a total of 36 months. If this is of interest to you, reach out to the International Programs office for more detail and enroll today!!!
