Master of Science in Information Technology Leadership

To be a successful leader in IT, you need to have mastery of both technology AND core business disciplines to understand how technology integrates within the context of the enterprise. However, getting those skills you need is a different story. It takes time and years of practice.

But, there’s a better way: the Master of Science in Information Technology Leadership (MSITL) program from Walsh College.

With an MSITL degree, those with technical backgrounds have the opportunity to level up their leadership and business skills while becoming even better at what they do with technology. For those who have a more business-focused background, the MSITL will bring you up to speed on essential concepts related to cybersecurity, risk management, and project management through a powerful hands on business education.

Whether you’re a career changer or were moved into an IT leadership role, the MSITL will prepare you with proven tools, strategies, and advice that will help you become the leader that everyone wants to work for. With concentrations in Global Project Management and Executive Leadership, the career you’ve always dreamed of is well within reach.
