Whats the difference between Information Technology Management and Information Systems?

I've applied for two courses Information Technology Management for Business (ITMB) and

Information Systems with Business.(IS)

What is the difference between the two?

Or are they both the same but with different names?



Which one is more practical?

Which degree would be best to get the IS or the ITMB degree and has more job opportunities?Whats the difference between Information Technology Management and Information Systems?Is the 2nd degree actually called "Information Systems with Business"? If it is, then they're both considered similar, if not the same. In that case, pick either - they will both have an equal amount of job opportunities.



However, if its called "information systems" ... and there's no "with business" part, then they are, in fact, two different degrees.

A single IS (with no business) degree is focused solely on the computer.

ITM has more business involved - you'll be taking courses in Marketing, Accounting, Finance and Human Resources along with your computer courses, whereas in IS, there isn't as much business.



In this case, I would opt for ITM.



Hope that helps!
