Yes – In most cases they are not picky what computer related major you have. I have a CIS degree and took no business courses as another answerer suggested was part of that major.

  2. A Bachelor’s in Information Systems and Computer Science is similar. However, the difference in the two majors is that Information Systems require you to take business degrees. So when you graduate with a Information Systems degree you can go into business or computer. A number of people see this as the hardest of the two. Computer Science is just straight computer courses.
    You most definitely can be qualified for a job that calls for a Computer Science major is you have a Information Systems degree.
