My ISM degree has helped me:
shape my skills in technology and business. I was a transfer student studying Information Systems at SFSU, where it was under the college of business, and the technology courses I took were only about 30 percent of their curriculum. At UCSC technology courses were about 65-70 percent, which definitely added value to my academic portfolio.
gain a competitive advantage with ISTM at UCSC. It helped me develop a strong foundation in the technology of business and the business of technology. The faculty were amazing and very supportive of my academic and career goals. I truly enjoyed the program along with my peers in the program who I still keep in contact with, up to today.
