Why Choose the E-Business & Systems Integration Certificate?

Responding to industry trends, Ferris State University's College of Business Graduate Programs has created graduate-level advanced studies certificates. These four course sequences can be used to obtain stand-alone certificates or as emphasis areas leading to masters degrees in either Information Systems Management or a Master of Business Administration based on the philosophy of performance metrics-based management.

The E-Business and Systems Integration Certificate is designed to create business leaders who select and determine information systems components, integrate multitudes of systems, and develop tools to facilitate electronic business. Systems integration is a logical outgrowth of the industry trend in outsourcing. Systems developed by third parties need to be integrated throughout the enterprise to realize full potential.
