BLS Management Information Systems Degree Plan

[SyedUsman]

Hi folks,

Could someone please share the updated degree plan for BLS in MIS? I’m specifically looking for the BLS in Management Information Systems only, not the BLS in Project Management & Information Systems.

I’ve found the plan for PM & IS, but I’m interested only in the MIS minor. If anyone has an updated degree plan that reflects the recent changes or has experience with this specific track, please share it.

Thanks!

Basically, Sophia.org/Study.com may have been affected for their classes that can transfer into the major/minors. Thus, you're going to transfer all the general education and electives, and complete the major/minor at the institution. That's the only difference, all the plans remain the same, or with the same recommendations except for the major/minor.

Please fill in the addendum and template, for reference, your previous thread: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...-Study-com
Here's a thread you want to review as well, especially re-read the last post: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...egree-Plan

• Your Location: Pakistan (International Student)
  
• Your Age: 23
  
• What kind of degree do you want?: BLS in Management Information Systems
  
• Current Regionally Accredited Credits: N/A
  
• Current ACE, CLEP, or NCCRS Credits: I currently have 61 credits from Sophia.org, including credits toward GED requirements (4 courses pending) and other courses in Business Administration and Project Management concentration, which were part of my previous plan for the BABA PM & IS degree. I can share the full list of courses if needed.
  
• Any certifications or military experience?: I hold the CompTIA Security+ SY0-701 certification.
  
• Budget: $2,000 (One-term budget only. The goal is to complete all 10 courses in a single term at UMPI to meet residency requirements and graduate with my degree.)
  
• Commitments: I work about 10 hours a day, but it’s remote work from home, so I can manage my study time.
  
• Dedicated time to study: Planning to block 2 hours per day for studying.
  
• Timeline: I’ve already submitted my application for Fall I. The document submission deadline for this intake is August 12, 2025, and classes start on September 2, 2025.
  
• Tuition assistance/reimbursement: N/A – Self-funded
  

Let me know if you have any questions. Also, if you can suggest a degree plan based on the information I’ve shared above, that would be incredibly helpful. Thanks again for all the great work you're doing for this community!

The degree plan is identical except for Project Management, which no longer works for BUS 141.

Thanks for sharing this!

Are there any alternatives available for BUS 141: Introduction to Project Management with Microsoft Projects, or do I need to take this course at UMPI?

Also, regarding the following courses that are required to be completed through Study.com for BLS MIS:

BUS 244: Management Information Systems

Any 2 Upper-Level (UL) Courses from Study.com

Are there any alternatives for these three courses available on Sophia.org or any other platform? Is it possible to eliminate the need for Study.com entirely from my degree planning for the BLS in Management Information Systems?
