UGA Management Information Systems - MIS

The MIS department and held its annual "Meet the Companies" event on campus last week.

We're thankful for the participation of all of our corporate partners at this recruiting event; our students had a great experience!

We wouldn't be able to host these social events for our students without the support of the corporate members of the MIS Advisory Board (and in particular the Black Corporate level members!) In addition to their generous financial support, our students especially appreciate all the branded swag they can win through our games, raffles, and trivia competitions.

The MIS Department hosted the MIS Academic Leadership Conference (MALC) to over 100 MIS thought leaders, department heads, associate deans, and deans from around the world. The conference featured an opening reception, keynote talk by Bill Franks on analytics and AI, a debate in historical Demosthenian Hall on the long-term impact of AI on jobs, and a Georgia-style football tailgate. Panels included deans discussing the trends and opportunities for MIS in business schools, innovative ideas and opportunities, AI in the MIS curriculum, “hot takes” on MIS related issues, fund raising best practices, journal editors discussing publication trends and issues.
Set aside the SEC tension to share an awesome weekend with our LSU counterpart…not sure it’ll remain😉
