MSIS Industry Capstone

What is the Industry Capstone?

The Industry Capstone for the Master of Science in Information Systems (MSIS) Program is industry-sponsored, experiential coursework where student teams apply their academic learning into practice by working with real companies to solve real business problems. Teams analyze business processes and deploy emerging information technology solutions. The Industry Capstone provides an opportunity for sponsoring entities to explore technology solutions for business problems with knowledgeable, skilled, creative, and passionate students without taking undue risk. The projects aim to create business, social, and public value for sponsors.

More detailed information on the timeline, structure, content, and process of the industry capstone project can be found in the MSIS Industry Capstone Prospectus [PDF].
