課程概述

Information systems (and its underlying information technologies) have become indispensable components in the modern enterprises. Information systems (IS) are one of the major tools available to managers for achieving operational excellence, supporting decision making, facilitating product/service development, enabling business innovations, and achieving and sustaining firms’ competitive advantages. In the digital economy, there is a tremendous demand for managers that can combine technical skills with business insights to create values for their firms using IS. 

課程目標
This course offers a comprehensive overview of information systems (IS). It will discuss both technical and managerial issues related to IS. Fundamental concepts of IS, how they impact business firms, and how IT investment can be appraised will be discussed. Students will also be introduced to modern information technology infrastructure and core IS applications for businesses (including enterprise resource planning, supply chain management, customer relationship management, data analytics for decision support, and e-commerce). Finally, we will review and discuss some emerging IT innovations essential in the digital economy, including knowledge management, sharing economy, social media analytics, and Internet of Things (IoT) and their applications. 
課程要求
Group Assignments:
There will be 2 group assignments in this semester. Specific tasks for the group assignments will be given in the class. For each group assignment, every group needs to turn in a written report and prepare a 3-minute sharing in class (if class schedule allows).

Group Project: Design of IT Solutions for Traditional Low-tech Firms
For the group project, each group is required to design for a low-tech firm an IT solution(s) that turns its business operations from a low degree of informatization and digitalization to IT-supported or IT-enabled ones (i.e., the use of IT to automate/support and improve the firm’s business processes, services, decision making, etc.). Your team needs to find a real firm of your choice. Your project needs to conduct interviews to understand current business processes/operations and identify the pain points of the focal firm. The goal of your project is to propose an IT solution(s) to address some or all of these pain points of the focal firm. Your project needs to satisfy the following requirements:
Scope: Your proposed IT solution(s) needs to cover the use of IT to automate/support not only business processes but also decision making.
Coverage of IT: Your proposed solution(s) needs to involve the use of advanced or emerging ITs, including Internet of things (IoT), big data analytics, artificial intelligence, social networking, and/or mobile technologies.
With respect to your proposed solution, you need to consider its innovativeness (benchmarked with what other firms in the same industry have done) and technological feasibility.

Weeks 17 and 18 are reserved for the oral presentations of your group projects. Each group also needs to turn in a written report at Week 18.

Examination:
There will be one examination for this course. The examination is mainly in the format of in-class, close-book and close-note (some questions may be conducted in the in-class and open-note format). All class lectures and required readings will be included in the scope for examination questions.

Class Participation:
Students are strongly encouraged to participate in class discussions to enhance their learning experience. In addition to class attendance, the level of participation will be evaluated on the basis of each student’s contribution to class discussions.

Throughout the semester, there will be 8 class attendance checks, which will be carried out at a random basis. If you miss 3 out of 8 class attendance checks, there will be a five-point penalty on your final grade.
