Where the CIO Jobs Are
December 05, 2012
Chemistry majors learning about ERP; IT students in communications courses: the next generation of leaders in the IT industry are acquiring a broad set of skills to prepare for their future roles.
There’s been a huge growth in GVSU’s ERP program sparked by high demand for people who understand the business, regardless of their major. “Students see that acquiring the ERP skill set makes them more marketable,” says Dr. Simha R. Magal, Professor of Management at GVSU. “Companies want people who know how end-to-end processes work.”
He says GVSU has also created a minor in ERP for chemistry, history, and other majors. This gives students deep knowledge in their discipline coupled with an understanding of broad cross-functional processes. It’s this combination of business and technology acumen that’s most valuable to companies.
