MBA vs. Master of Science (MS) in IT Management: what's the difference?

A Master of Science in IT Management has a greater focus on the science of technology and growing IT-related skills. The curriculum for both degrees may overlap somewhat depending on the program, but both also offer unique benefits.

An MBA with a concentration in IT management helps you develop the business and management skills to thrive in many types of unique environments.
