ISYS|CSCI1021.05|.08 Fall 2016 Computers In Management [Wyner]
This is an introductory course on information technology (IT) and its use in modern organizations. The course focuses on two central questions: 1.

We will tackle these questions by: • learning about key business and technology concepts, • developing a set of frameworks for applying these concepts to the analysis of business situations, • applying these frameworks to the analysis of actual companies who are using technology to transform their businesses, and • learning to use spreadsheet software (Microsoft Excel) to analyze complex business problems.
