Is Computer Information System and Computer Science the same?

Diffeernce between Computer Science and Computer Information System?

  • Which one need more course to graduate? which take more math? What about pay which is better? which one has more job open out there?

  • Answer:

    I'm no expert but I just chose Computer Information Systems(CIS) over Computer Science(CS). CIS is a Bachelors of business degree and (CS) is a Bachelors of Science degree therefore CS has more math than CIS thats why I chose CIS. CNN.com says that a CS major starting salary is 51K it does not list CIS but it says Information Science majors make 43K starting out. I think Information Scince is pretty much the same thing as CIS. From what I have read there will be plenty of jobs for both fields. Check out this website and have fun!!! http://www2.cis.gsu.edu/cis/program/bbacis.asp

Pick a college and take a look at the curriculum for the two different degrees. I believe that (or at least when I attended -- back with a few cave men) computer science requires more math and more credits. Relative to jobs both have opportunities but Comp Sci has the edge as far as number and salary.

The difference between computer science and information systems is computer science consists of software development, programming. computer information systems is mainly operating a computer, to build databases, media, spread sheets, word processing, etc. Programming maybe because, not everybody that study this field has the aptitudeo succeed and complete the course successfully. This fiels takes more maths and pays a hell of a lot more. On balance I could be wrong but I think programming because of the specialist skills needed.
