Overview: This course seeks to train future leaders of
the Information Systems / Information Technology functional area. We will
survey a variety of topics concerning information technology management in the
twenty-first century. There is a bias towards addressing issues that concern
senior executives at large firms. Nearly all of our
case studies come from actual administrative situations. Instructional
techniques will include lectures, case discussions, and a limited amount of
small group work.
