Which college offers the best online management information systems degree?

Can anyone point me toward the best online program for management information systems? I'm trying to prepare for a career in MIS, and a flexible online degree could be perfect while I'm still in high school.

There are several universities known for their excellent online Management Information Systems (MIS) programs. While the term "best" is subjective and depends on the specific needs and circumstances of the student, here are a few well-regarded options:

1. Pennsylvania State University: Penn State's World Campus offers a Bachelor of Science in Information Sciences and Technology, with a focus on Integration and Application. This course offers both practical skills and theoretical understanding and is well regarded in the field.

2. Florida State University: Florida State offers an online Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, with a concentration in Information Technology. This program includes training in database management, network management, and computer programming.

It's important to consider other factors outside of the program curriculum such as tuition costs, faculty quality, graduation rates, student support services, and the reputation of the university. Research these factors by visiting the school's website, reaching out to current students or alumni, and reading online reviews to get a holistic idea of the program.

Keep in mind that studying MIS in high school via a university program is usually not feasible, due to the difficulty level and admissions requirements of these programs. Still, you could start preparing by taking relevant AP classes (like Computer Science) and looking into community college courses. And make sure that an MIS degree aligns with your long-term career goals - an internship or job shadowing experience could provide valuable insight before you commit to an entire degree program.
