Information Systems for Non-Majors

Operations and Information Systems BU - David Eccles Sch of Business

Description

This is a hands-on course designed to teach students about the integration of business knowledge and technology. This course provides an overview of the role and use of information systems (IS) in supporting individual, group, and organizational decision-making. Core concepts addressed in this course include: hardware, software, databases, systems development, business intelligence, networks and telecommunications, e-business/web 2.0, IT security, product management, and business process improvement. In this course, key concepts are reinforced through assigned reading and through experiential learning activities (labs). We hoped that these experiences will both strengthen the IS comprehension and increase the marketability of our students at University of Utah.
