The MIS Department has instituted a PRO points (professional achievement points) requirement for all MIS majors. This class is a checkpoint to ensure that students are focused on this requirement and on track to earn their 1,000 points by graduation. Students in MIS2402 must have a minimum of 200 points by the end of the semester. Students who fail to earn the required points will receive an \u201cIncomplete\u201d for this course regardless of performance on exams or class participation.<\/p>\n

IMPORTANT NOTE:<\/strong> If a student fails to meet the minimum number of PRO points within one year from the end of the semester or does not notify their instructor that they have met the minimum number of points, then their \u201cIncomplete\u201d will be changed to an \u201cF\u201d automatically. The grade of \u201cF\u201d will then be the student\u2019s permanent grade.<\/strong><\/p>\n

You are STRONGLY<\/strong> encouraged to, at a minimum, do the following to earn points:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Create a Portfolio and have it listed with the department.<\/li>\n
  2. Become an active member of AIS and participate in professional development activities.<\/li>\n
  3. Participate in the MIS Department\u2019s Career Fair (fall semester only).<\/li>\n
  4. Volunteer your time for department-sponsored events.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Finally, here are two excellent resources that describe why the MIS professional achievement points are important to you.<\/p>\n

      Finally, students will be given the opportunity to earn up to 50 MIS PRO points by doing an optional project during the semester.\u00a0 Details about the MIS2402 PRO point project will be announced on the class website.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
