Hello,
I have a question about the CIS degree at TESU and I'm hoping someone can clear it up for me. I know it recently changed to BS in CIS from BSBA in CIS. For my purposes, a technical-sounding degree would be more beneficial than a business-sounding one. Has anyone graduated with the updated degree plan to know how it is listed on your transcript? Is it just Bachelor of Science in Computer Information Systems, without any mention of business administration?
I appreciate any help you all can provide!

I would be curious to see what the BS CIS would look like on a transcript. Maybe someone will report back soon on this.
As I understand, TESU reports the CIP code for this degree as a business degree. With enough transfer credit from Google certs, I imagine this could look like an IT degree.
Also, you can consider adding on the computer science associate degree.

@Kones, just wondering, do you have enough math classes for the AS Math? If so, I would add that to the AS CS that you're going for... Otherwise, skip it.

So it does NOT show "Bachelor of Science - Computer Information Systems" but rather the old "Bachelor of Science Business Administration - Computer Information Systems".
That might be good news for some here and bad news for others (who wished that it looked more "technical" and less "business-like").
Did we ever figure out which other BSBA concentrations can be combined with this one? Presumably not Finance?

@homeschoolmom1, people are reading this differently because of the funky characters, spacing, and so on. It's essentially this...
AS - Associate in Science Degree Awarded on 06/24
COS - Computer Science
BS - Bachelor of Science Degree Awarded on 06/24
CIS - Computer Informat
BSBA - BS in Business Administration Degree Awarded on 06/24
ACC - Accounting
CERT - Certificate Degree Awarded on 06/24
ORG - Organizational Le
Yes, we figured out what options are available for which degree last year, it also has the reference to the degrees Kones is going for and has been awarded: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...e-nonsense
