Web-based trade is no longer a niche business. The explosion of online communications has led to a new world of growth and possibilities, and the challenge for today's systems engineers is crafting application systems structure in an information environment. Polytechnic Institute of NYU’s Master of Science program addresses these concerns with its unique, business-oriented approach to learning.

The Information Systems Engineering (ISE) Executive Degree program originated in 1987 as a cooperative effort between the Department of Computer and Information Sciences and New York State’s Center for Advanced Technology in Telecommunications (CATT).

The two-year, four-semester program consists of 13 courses and an independent project, and prepares the student to compete in the web-based, wireless world with contemporary instruments and cutting-edge skills. Using the latest software tools and applications, the program concentrates on training in computer science, management, and electrical engineering, with a focus on information systems engineering.
