With the creation of the Business Information Management (BIM) major in 2008, a group of students banded together in 2010 to establish Management Information Student Society, commonly known as MAISS. The group of BIM students hoped to create a tight-knit community to persevere through the difficulties of the newly-established curriculum. Since then, MAISS has grown to serve all students who share a passion for business and technology. We aspire to improve the quality of student life and ensure successful futures for our members by:

Strengthening the BIM and business community at UC Irvine through the MAISS Mentorship Program and Internship Program, which provides members with exceptional resources and opportunities for professional, academic, and social growth.
Representing BIM students by fostering relationships among fellow peers, faculty, and staff within the Donald Bren School of Information and Computer Sciences and The Paul Merage School of Business.
Most importantly, we are open to ALL MAJORS with interests in the growing business and technology field!

Whether you are interested in either business, tech, or both, MAISS is the organization for you! We are a vibrant, inclusive, and driven community that aspires to bring together passionate students from all facets of UCI and further growth and development through not just professional, but fun settings.
