INB 350 - Managing Information Systems

The combination of powerful technology developments and global business opportunities has led to the creation of new organizational forms and new challenges in managing them. We call these new organizational forms, “the digital firm,” to emphasize that every aspect of the firm is touched and potentially transformed by technology and systems like the internet, mobile phones, or Skype. This course includes topics such as why IT/IS matters, how they can provide a competitive advantage to firms, data and knowledge management, internet and security, electronic commerce, intra- and extranets, enterprise systems and information systems ethics and computer crime. Prerequisite(s): BUS 233, BUS 236.
