Recruitment for project management is increasing rapidly. With the economy recovering strongly, the global business community has become more confident, and now they want to hire more project managers. Because so many years were spent in fear of spending too much, companies were not updating their systems as potentially necessary. Now, behind in technology, companies want project managers to move them into the next digital steps.

Established businesses do not want to outsource project management, so they have increased hires in this field. Also, with the increasing market of start-up businesses, there is an increased need for project managers and professionals with project delivery skills in order to drive these new businesses towards success. Many of the project management roles being filled require niche skills and specialization. It is important to build these skills, and we can begin to develop these skills through MIS 441.

For me, hoping to pursue a career in MIS, this is a great piece of knowledge to have because I can begin developing project management skills pre-graduation. MIS students can also use this information to expand the categories of jobs that they are looking to apply for post-graduation. With a greater need for project managers with niche skills, MIS majors can build and develop specializations in order to better serve the global business community.
