Course: Management Information Systems
Project Name: An Overview Look Into EPIC Systems
Reasons for this project:
Provide research on conventional and modern company that uses information systems.
Required for learning about the flow of information in the world of IT.
For the ability to accurately present how MIS functions.
I very much enjoyed this course. I loved the passion of my professor as she was teaching us this course, which is why I became more interested in this field of study. This course helped me to understand the flow of information in the world of information technology. Topics such as supply chain, MIS, the types of systems, how the different organizational departments function, and the very lucrative, yet subtle relationship between customers and suppliers have all been ingrained within me. I spent weeks reading page after page on how it all works and it honestly fascinates me to no end.
This is a course that I can only describe as the backbone of the IT world. It's the fundamental knowledge that any IT professional should know. These topics go beyond how to think like a CEO, it goes into a realm of study that is still a honeypot of knowledge and learning. If I were to put it into an analogy, Management Information Systems is akin to going to buy groceries without your shopping list. You may know that you want to go to the store, but without the proper preparation and information on what you want to buy, you'd be wandering aimlessly and without control thinking about what to buy. In that same fashion, MIS is extremely important to learn before going out into the real world.
