The Information Systems and Technology degree prepares students to contribute to solving many of the world’s problems through the creative, collaborative, and strategic application of technology. In this program, you’ll be exposed to augmented and virtual reality, app development, web design, entrepreneurship, programming, and data analytics. Catawba's IST degree will help you develop skills that can be used in many working contexts and subject matters. Additionally, incoming freshmen majoring in this program may be offered a scholarship upon acceptance to the College.

Catawba College students have unique opportunities for close interactions with faculty in the IST discipline and with their fellow students. Our upper-level classes are capped at a small number to allow even more interaction between you and your faculty, who are committed to having Information Systems and Technology majors understand the interdisciplinary and cross-disciplinary aspect of this program of study. The faculty also has a wide range of interests and backgrounds that allow students to study topics that they are interested in and that are not found in a typical course.
