YÖNETİM BİLİŞİM SİSTEMLERİ YÜKSEK LİSANS PROGRAMI
Bilgi çağının temelini oluşturan yönetim bilişim sistemleri dünyada ve ülkemizde gün geçtikçe daha kapsamlı ve derinlemesine ele alınmakta, çok farklı uygulama alanları bulmakta, dolayısıyla da hızla önem kazanmakta ve birçok bilim dalını etkilemektedir. Yönetim bilişim sistemleri ile aktif etkileşime giren bu bilim dallarında söz konusu etkileşimin sağlam ve bilimsel bir temele oturtulması gereği kaçınılmazdır.
Bu gelişmelere paralel olarak hemen hemen her alandaki kişiler yönetimde verimliliği arttıran bu sistemler ile ilgilenmekte ve kendi alanlarında bu konuda uzmanlaşmak istemektedirler.
Yönetim Bilişim Sistemleri Yüksek Lisans Programı'nın amacı bu alanda bilimsel altyapıya sahip uzmanlar yetiştirmek ve araştırma çalışmalarına katkıda bulunmaktır.
