Faculty & Research
The faculty members in the Management Information Systems Division are known for world class research. We conduct research on the full breadth of topics in the field, including the analysis, design, and modeling of information systems, the behavioral aspects of how people use and manage systems, and the economic aspects of how to manage and assess investments in information system. Recent students have studied topics such as e-commerce, e-government, IT security, agile development, resistance to IT, and IT strategy.
