Mission
The CMIS facilitates mutually beneficial partnerships with corporate members in an effort to provide educational opportunities, research support, and corporate access to students.
The CMIS engages an active corporate membership program that advances its objectives through coordination, participation, and sponsorship. The CMIS seeks to provide members with competitive advantages in their own interests through choice partnerships.
Partners
We recognize the value in corporate partnerships and understands the critical role they play in the sustained growth of our students. Towards this end, we formed the CMIS Advisory Board, with constituents dedicated to providing guidance to the center and the MIS curriculum.
Corporate advisory board membership offers exclusive opportunities to interact with current MIS and MS-MIS students. The program operates under a 3- tiered membership model: Exabyte, Petabyte, and Terabyte. Each level comes with its own unique combination of benefits. This model allows members to contribute to the program at a level that bests suits their interests.
Membership benefits include direct influence of educational programming and research endeavors, networking opportunities, priority access to student competitions, and more.
The CMIS Advisory Board networks with students and faculty during the annual programs offered year-round.
