Welcome to the course Information Technology for Management, ISYS7700 (Fall 2015)

Here is the current syllabus for the fall term. Please contact the instructor at leonard.evenchik@bc.edu if you have any questions.

Course Description:
Information Technology (IT) systems permeate the strategy, structure, and operations of modern enterprises. IT has become a major generator of business value, especially for organizations that have the right set of resources and capabilities to exploit it. It is essential that managers become fluent with IT so that they can promote innovative strategic initiatives that are increasingly IT dependent. In this course, students will obtain a broad overview of IT fundamentals, key emerging technologies, and IT managerial frameworks. Students will develop their ability to identify new opportunities presented by IT. (Please see the course syllabus for information on the textbook and other administrative details.)
