Examines theory, concepts, and techniques for designing, managing, and evaluating advanced information technologies to meet specific information needs. Students engage in a project applying theoretical constructs to the provision of advanced information technology resources.
Students should expect to develop competencies in (1) the ability to understand organizational and system requirements, (2) the ability to evaluate and manage the implementation of technologies to meet these requirements, (3) ability to choose appropriate technologies to suit a given problem, and (4) developing an appreciation for the implications of system implementations in light of emerging technologies and practice trends.
These competencies will extend into enabling businesses to operate across and among international enterprises using so-called enterprise solutions. Enterprise solutions, by definition, require the ability to distribute applications across many computers, perhaps even across large geographical distances.
