IT Graduate Concentrations

The IT faculty designed the IT Concentrations to provide an in-depth experience in the application of information technology. Students often select areas that complement their prior backgrounds (e.g., students with strong computer backgrounds may select MIS or E-business).

Alternately, some students select a Concentration related to their prior backgrounds and then expand on that background through higher-level coursework. Courses taken to complete a Core requirement do not count towards the Concentration. Students must have the prerequisite knowledge for each course as described in the university catalog.

For individual course content, the 2004-2005 Rensselaer Catalog is available as a series of Adobe PDF documents. For definitions of each Concentration click on the titles below:
