The Information Technologies concentration focuses on how technology can be used, designed, and managed to support effective decision-making.
Students are first introduced to computer algorithms and data structures, networks, and integrated information systems. The subject matter then expands to include the managerial, organizational, and social issues associated with the design, implementation, and evaluation of information technologies.
The following new curriculum will begin September 2008.
| Required subjects | Units | |
|---|---|---|
| 1.00* | Introduction to Computers and Engineering Problem Solving | 12 |
| 15.561 | Information Technology Essentials | 9 |
| Plus two of the following | Units | |
| 15.320 | Strategic Organizational Design | 9 |
| 15.358 | The Business of Software and Digital Platforms | 9 |
| 15.565 | Evolution Towards Web 3.0 and the Emergence of Management 3.0† | 9 |
| 15.567 | The Economics of Information: Strategy, Structure and Pricing | 9 |
* 1.00 also satisfies a departmental requirement. EECS is no longer offering 6.001; students may use 6.001 if they have already taken it. 6.005 is an acceptable alternative to 1.00. Students may not use 6.00 or 6.01 (or both) to satisfy the computer requirement for Course 15.
† Credit cannot be received for both 15.565 and 15.578.
