The curriculum is taught by DO&IT’s world renown faculty —acknowledged thought leaders in Web 2.0 technologies, electronic markets, database management, project management, transformational and disruptive technologies, etc. 

The Smith School’s strengths in both research and practice are reflected in its rankings and other accolades.  The Smith School and the DO&IT Department was recently ranked as one of the top ten tech-centric programs in the US by CIO Magazine. U.S. News and World Report ranks the Smith School as having the fifth best program in management information systems. The Wall Street Journal ranks Smith's information technology program #6.
