Information Technology Management (Track 1)

The program requires 120 total credit hours, with 60 upper-division credit hours completed in the Information Technology Management major. Students take one class at a time in four-week terms, with new classes starting every month and a small-class, roughly 14-to-1 student-to-faculty environment.

The full bachelor's degree spans approximately 40 months; for students entering with a qualifying associate degree, the upper-division completion portion takes roughly 20 additional months. Classes are offered in day, evening, online, and hybrid formats at select campuses, allowing working professionals to progress at a sustainable pace.

The upper-division curriculum combines a 45-credit Information Technology Management major with 15 credits of general education, spanning database systems, project and operations management, systems analysis and design, business intelligence, cloud computing, and the legal and ethical foundations of business and IT. Selected courses can be completed through an internship-in-computing sequence in place of the design, implementation, and capstone courses.

Required Courses

Tuition is charged per 16-week semester based on scheduled credit hours. A full-time schedule (12–17.99 credits) is approximately $12,408 per semester per Keiser's Undergraduate Tuition & Fee Disclosure (subject to annual review). Completing the 120-credit degree at a typical full-time pace of about 15 credits per semester spans roughly eight semesters, for an estimated tuition of about $99,300 before any transfer credit; because Track 1 is a completion program, students entering with a qualifying associate degree pay for substantially fewer semesters. Enrollment also carries a one-time $55 application fee and a one-time $145 registration fee (subject to annual review). Any per-course resource or lab fees are set at the program level and are not separately published for this program; prospective students should confirm current charges with financial services.

Financial aid options for those who qualify include federal Pell Grants, FSEOG, Direct Subsidized and Unsubsidized Loans, Direct PLUS Loans, and Federal Work-Study; Florida student aid programs (FSAG and EASE); institutional scholarships; and veterans and military benefits. Students should complete the FAFSA (School Code 015159) each year. Keiser's Net Price Calculator is available at https://www.keiseruniversity.edu/NPC-index.html.

Estimated total program tuition of about $99,264 (full-time semesters at ~$12,408/semester); actual cost varies with pace and transfer credit.

Graduates are prepared to pursue technology leadership and management roles across corporate, government, healthcare, and technology-services settings, including:

• IT Manager and IT Director
• Information Systems Manager
• Project Manager
• Operations Manager
• Database Administrator
• Systems Analyst
• Network and Computer Systems Administrator
• Business Technology Consultant
• IT Supervisor and Change Management Specialist

This is a management-oriented degree that does not lead to a state license. The curriculum's coverage of project management, database systems, cloud computing, and information security also helps position graduates to pursue widely recognized industry certifications (for example in project management, cloud platforms, or IT service management) offered by third-party organizations independent of the university.

Expect to focus on one course at a time in four-week terms, balancing technical subjects such as database management, systems analysis and design, and cloud computing with business and leadership courses in operations management, organizational behavior, accounting for non-financial majors, and IT ethics and law. Coursework emphasizes applying customer-centered problem analysis and project planning to real organizational needs, along with developing the written and oral communication skills expected of IT managers.

Students choosing the internship option gain applied, workplace-based experience in place of certain design and capstone courses. Whether studying online, on campus, or in a hybrid format, learners work in small classes with faculty support, and the Office of Student Services offers career assistance including resume and interview coaching, job-search guidance, employer recruiting visits, and job placement help for graduates.
