Course Description:
Business Information Systems (BIS) is an introductory course on the role of Information Systems (IS) in organizations. Worldwide, IS are prominently present in organizations and information is a crucial resource for an organization’s survival. BIS focuses on how IS help managing information resources and on how organizations can benefit from these IS. In the course, we cover various topics, starting from digital innovation. Some have a more managerial focus, such as IS strategy, structure, and culture, while others have a more technical focus, such as the basics of programming and databases, recent technological developments, and security. We take an international perspective on these topics and pay extra attention to outsourcing, offshoring, and how cultures differ with regard to IT and IS adoption and use.
