Are there any Bachelor's in Management Information Systems out there with MCP or MCSE certifications? If so, what type of positions do you hold, and what are your average salaries?

Thanks,

Get the Degree! It will be worth it!
I hold a BS in Bus.Admin, and I am currently working toward MBA in CIS\Telecom Mgt. I have a couple of industry certs from Novell and CompTIA.
I am currently working as a systems engineer, but my aspirations are definately in management. I am trying to round out my technical experiance. I have been offered starting management positions @ $70k+.
The Certs will get you a job as a tech jockey, but the Degree is going to set you above the rest after you gain experiance.

Take it from me, I'm an IT Manager with 16 years practical experience in the IT field, but with only an AS degree in Computer Engineering, GET THE BS DEGREE!!!

It's the one thing I'd change in my educational past. You can work on the industry certifications later, but get the degree first it will help you in the long run.
