INFO 5590
Information Mgmt Systems
In Information Management Systems we will investigate a wide range of current issues in information technology, information systems, and web-based applications with a particular emphasis on mobile and social media applications and services. We will also explore the principles of user interface design, systems analysis, information needs analysis, information systems requirements and project planning. Finally, we will examine how modern information and communication technologies (ICTs) have been and are changing the way we communicate, collaborate, share information, innovate, perform, socialize and work, and how these technological changes are affecting the role and functions of information managers in the public and private sectors.
