21st
century organizations operate
within global networks of customers, suppliers, competitors, and
regulations. Information is the lifeblood of these networks, and
effective
information management is essential to a firm's success. IT
creates entrepreneurial and strategic opportunities as well as
challenges in this environment. Managers
must be able to evaluate new technologies, wisely invest
in IT innovations, implement and manage applications, and
manage the flow and use of information through IT-enabled business
processes. Our mission in the Department of Information Technology
Management is to help mangers be successful in this
technology-intensive
world.
As researchers, we investigate the technical and social dimensions of emerging information technologies: organizational and social aspects of IT, IT architecture and business alignment, information security, systems development, governance of global outsourcing and many other critically important areas. As educators, we integrate the knowledge we gain through our research with best practices from IT management into innovative curricula. We offer an undergraduate major in Management Information Systems, as well as concentrations in ITM in the MBA program and global ITM in the International Management PhD program.
