CIS 105 Computer Information Technology
3 college credits.
This course is an introductory course with a dual focus: one focus on organizations and another focus on the individuals who work for them. At the individual level, we will examine how business decision-making can be improved when supporting technologies like spreadsheets are leveraged. From the organizational perspective, we will cover strategic analysis frameworks and business strategies that can be fine-tuned for competition in an increasingly digitally transformed world.
You will be immersed in a world where some jobs are being eliminated and new ones are being added in a process known as creative destruction. Just around the corner for the world economy will be the emergence of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies. AI will disrupt industries and will require major strategic change in established companies. It will also provide opportunities for new business ideas and entrepreneurship. The dual focus in this course – on individuals and organizations – will provide you with the background needed to make important decisions about choosing a possible career in business and/or information systems.
