MIS 441 - Decision Support Systems

3 Credit(s)

As organizations and the business environment become increasingly complex, the role of information technology in supporting informed and intelligent decisions has continued to increase. Web-based technologies deliver enterprise information and knowledge, business environment data, analysis tools, and collaboration capabilities to support decision making. Systems designed to support decisions take many forms and functions. This course surveys the theories and the applications in these systems, including decision support systems, group collaboration and support systems, executive information systems, artificial intelligence, expert systems, intelligence agents, organizational learning, and knowledge management. Extensive use of spreadsheets and SAP are incorporated into this course. This course counts toward the SAP Recognition Award.
