Textbook addresses most of the major areas covered in and introductory information technology management course. I would like to see additional content project management, systems planning, and some more on legal and social/organizational issues inherent in information technology systems implementation, but these topics are often not covered in introductory books in this discipline. There is a very thorough table of contents (see Interface section), the chapters are nicely sub-divided and have a clear visual structure.
Content in the text is timely and accurate, error-free and unbiased. Examples are from U.S. based companies, as well as international organizations, which helps to broaden the approaches to information systems. Since the subject of this book is recent information technology and the business world, it is a given that some references will have to be updated and changed, the subject area is just changing very quickly.
You will gain a firm foundation in business administration and learn to analyze, develop and manage information systems. Depending on your skills and interests you might become a business process analyst, IT project manager, application specialist, data modeler, systems analyst, software quality tester, developer or database administrator, or choose from other technology-oriented business careers.
You will not just learn theory. You have plenty of opportunities to build, troubleshoot, refine and manage information systems through targeted exercises in real-world projects. Projects sponsored by outside companies help you learn to bring together people, business processes, and information technology. 2ff7e9595c
