Mark’s Answer
MIS is a relatively wide field. As the other person mentioned, it is good to have some specialization. It is harder than say journalism in terms of time and commitment you have to make and do all the labs and classes. However, it is a rewarding career and it is a wide area. The other thing to consider is up-keep and continuous education that you need to do while you are on the job.

An MIS degree is challenging but I wouldn't consider it "hard"
It might be worth understanding what your end goal is. I personally took on an MIS degree and combined it with various business degrees to look to become a leader in tech.
I believe it important to combine an MIS degree with another degree even if it is a minor, to give you the breadth you might need since MIS is a fairly abstract degree (not as focused on detailed coding or programming like a computer science degree).
