Mestrado emManagement Information Systems

If you think the technological world and the business world are increasingly interconnected, you are not alone.

ISEG decided to bring the two together in the same space and created the Masters in Management Information Systems (MMIS). The master’s degree where information is power!

The MMIS offers rigorous and challenging training in information systems and technologies. The professionalising nature of this master’s programme and the development of the technical and scientific potential of these future areas will broaden students’ career prospects. 

Partnerships

Students will also have the opportunity to enhance their international experience and business environment exposure with a hands-on SAP immersive program abroad. For that, we established a partnership with the University HTW SAAR (Saarbrücken Germany) and SAP*. In the scope of this partnership, we offer an optional program with the duration of one week, in which the students have SAP classes at our partner university and visits to SAP St. Ingbert, SAP headquarters in Walldorf and an SAP consulting firm (additional fee applied**). We also offer, in the second year, an elective course of SAP (Enterprise Systems with SAP Labs).

*The effective implementation of the program is dependent on the national and international public health conditions and on international stability.

** Prices may be adjusted if international economic conditions change significantly.

As soon as I finished my bachelor’s degree in Applied Mathematics, I decided that I wanted to change and broaden my horizons. In order to improve my knowledge about Information Systems and the importance of managing them effectively in organizations, I decided to choose a Master in MIS at ISEG. There were no doubts that ISEG would be able to provide me with the necessary knowledge for a promising future. In my Master’s Final Work, I had the opportunity to carry out a project in ISEG that contributed to the improvement of a Business Intelligence tool developed within the scope of the UN Sustainable Development Goals. This experience was one of the most enriching of my academic career, and that could only be provided by a well-structured and challenging Master’s program. The culture and people in ISEG are amazing and they work together for the institution’s excellence, creating a highly qualified teaching. I strongly recommend this master’s degree, which allows us to choose from a wide range of areas, to enter the job market, which represents a great added value.
