of the CWI Rankings today we're going to
be ranking Mis programs a very very
popular degree of course now like with
gradine rackings as always we take into
factors that matter for international
students such as yourself we look at the
brand value of the program and not just
a university the return on investment
and starting salaries after you graduate
and of course the location at the end of
the day when you're spending so much for
a master's degree which one of these
make a lot of sense for you in the
shortterm and long-term foray career
that's how we are doing these rics now
of course in terms of word of caution
don't go blindly by rankings we're doing
this video purely for it to be a place
for you to start thinking about the very
good universities a university that is
ranked five on this list may not be
definitively better than University
ranked three depending on the career
outcomes that you have and your
curriculum preferences so please don't
assume that we're trying to promote or
Dem any University this is just a list
for you to start your research and start
your entire application process now with
that said let's dive into the rankings
[Music]
[Music]
all right standing at number one would
be a program that has some terrific
terrific starting salaries and Cal
growth in recent years I'm talking about
new B in terms of the brand it is
needless to say that there is one of the
finest University all across the world
it also has a brilliant location in the
B area which leads to a lot of wonderful
job opportunities overall Berkeley
typically prefers candidates with
slightly higher levels of work
experience exped usually upwards of 3
years and therefore the main median
starting salaries of students have also
been the highest among Mis programs UC
Berkeley's curriculum however is
slightly more technical as well and not
as management oriented as you would
desire now if you want a deeper
explanation of this I've done a video
where I explain Mis degrees and their
curriculums you can click on that link
right here so UC Berkeley is an
outstanding program in terms of return
on investment starting salaries
reputation location and all aspects
however be sure that you like the at
number two stands a program that is
synonymous with mis now when anyone says
Mis the first name that comes to mind is
Kani melon it's an outstanding program
in all respects now Kani melon has
multiple iterations of the Mis programs
and a suspect that is because of the
demand among students and the number of
applications coming through they have
their Flagship 16 month track they have
the shorter 12- Monon program and they
have a slightly more technically
intensive program called the MAA which
is business intelligence and data Antics
now cm is an outstanding program in
terms of brand it's in a great location
and in terms of curriculum and the kind
of jobs you get it's terrific as well
however it's a highly heavy technical
program if you're looking at an Mis
degree to break into product management
while it is possible from Kani melon it
is not the most ideal choice because of
the sheer number of technical electives
you have to take but overall it's an
outstanding program and that's why it
stands number two on this list all right
at number three stands a university
which has a brilliant location and is a
favorite among aspiral product managers
the University of Washington has the
master of science and information
management program offered by the high
school the big standout at University of
Washington is the University's location
its location in Seattle makes it a hub
for recruiters such as Amazon and
Microsoft which have a tradition of
recruiting product Managers from this
specific program the University of
Washington also has two tracks it has an
early career track which takes pressures
by the way one of the only Mis programs
that takes pressures and of course it
has a shorter 12 month program which
takes in people with upwards of two or
three years of work experience both
these tracks are absolutely terrific and
because of the location it is an
outstanding program that you have to go
to and a very reputed University as well
Additionally the program is definitely
far more management heavy than technical
heavy therefore a wonderful choice for
aspiring project managers or product
managers out there at number four stands
another massive massive brand in the
rore universities and I'm talking about
the University of Texas at Austin the
msis program at University of t a also
has a significantly technical curriculum
and like berley has a general so people
it's likly more work experience in terms
of job opportunities it is outstanding
because of the brand of the university
and Austin is a terrific location to be
in therefore you're getting the best of
pretty much all worlds overall however
the curriculum again is slightly more on
the technically heavy side so be careful
about that when you're considering that
University now when anyone talks about
Indiana University and the Kenny School
of Business the first thing that comes
to most people's mind is their Mis
program it is an absolutely terrific
program which has been reporting
outstanding placement rates even in the
most difficult of job markets also keny
tends to work out cheaper than slightly
more expensive Mis programs like caring
the curriculum is a wonderful balance of
tech and management and therefore you
can balance it in any which way you
please and there's a lot of product
managers who go into the market from
this program making it an outstanding
choice for all you aspiring Tech
managers Indian also has a priority
deadline that you have to apply for by
the 1st of November which takes only
your resume therefore you have a much
better chance of Landing a dream admit
if you apply early so keep that in mind
when you're considering Mis programs and
the Briant Indiana University scary
School of Business at number six comes
one of my favorite universities overall
because of the brilliant return on
investment it offers among the top tier
universities there is seldom a more
compelling Financial case than Texas
andm and therefore the Texas
College stations Mis program is sitting
from number six on this list it is going
to cost you much much less than any
other program on this list even ones
that are R well below it and the
starting salaries are incredibly High
because of the reputation of the school
therefore Texas andm is an outstanding
program that you have to consider if
you're okay with technically heavly
curriculums also one more additional
bonus piece of information this program
requires a Wes evaluation as does Kani
men that has been mentioned earlier at
the list so budget for $160 to $200 you
have to spend on that if you're applying
to either of these programs if you're
willing to spend that amount both of
these programs are outstanding and Texas
A&M is perhaps the best Roi period on
this list at number seven comes a
university that is so underrated among
Indian candidates the University of
Marland at College Park is a highly
highly reputed University in the states
and it has one of the oldest Mis
programs out there in terms of product
management and Tech job opportunities it
offers both in equal measure it's a
great location in the Washington Christ
state area and it's an outstanding
University as well in terms of
reputation starting salaries after
graduating from the University of mland
College Parks program I've been touching
six figures and being going Beyond much
like the other programs on this list and
therefore it's one that you definitely
should consider if you're looking at MIS
grow pack at number eight comes a
program that is expensive and perhaps
that is why it's gone a little bit down
on this New York University in the heart
of Manhattan in New York city has an
msis program which giv you terrific
career opportunities offered by the Kant
school this is a tech heavy program
which helps people really coming in from
non-tech backgrounds to break into
software roles you'll find that the
elective pool absolutely supports that
as a result the starting sales are
terrific as well but NYU is going to be
expensive because of the ction fee and
the fact that you're going to be
studying and living in New York City
which is perhaps the most expensive
place to be now when people ask me about
some good states to be I definitely
recommend places like Texas California
less and less so recover expenses um the
East Coast New York and Boston and
Arizona because it's so good in terms of
job opportunities overall and therefore
the next University is the University of
Arizona's inner School of Business which
offers a management and information
system program as well this is another
program that is outstanding for product
and product management career outcomes
and it is a very well reputed business
school overall way so if you are
evaluating Mis programs the University
of Arizona should certainly feature that
at number 10 stands one of the best
public universities in the US period the
University of in at champag is an
outstanding University now the location
may not be the best because it's a
campus St but it does open up a lot of
opportunities across the East Coast for
you the curriculum can be as Tech heavy
or as product and management heavy as
you please and it gives you a great
brand name after you graduate and
therefore it rounds off this top 10 list
