Forbes recently ranked information systems as the best master’s degree for jobs, citing an expected 30% increase in demand for IS positions. However, these and other impressive statistics do not define the passion women have for IS. Constantly-changing technologies, the ability to work from home, standing out in the business world, and feelings of empowerment, freedom, and leadership are among many explanations highlighting why female IS students are passionate about their field of study. IS degrees provide an array of career opportunities, illustrated by female alumni who express the major impact of how their acquired skills strongly integrate into and improve their work and personal lives. The mission of this video is to identify the varying passions for, opportunities in, and journeys taken by women who discovered IS - showing that passionate women in information systems can really make a difference!
Check out this video that I produced with a small group of students from Brigham Young University:
Please share it with the women in your life that are looking for a direction to take their lives. It is time to seize the day when it comes to the field of information systems! Make IS a passion of your life.
