> A question from the Padania: what is IS?
Information systems, also called management information systems. Most
programs are in business schools in the US, although some are in other
places. IS (or MIS) is concerned with using information technology to
solve business problems, rather than with the technology itself. For
instance, an IS course in ecommerce might emphasize how ecommerce goals
can be driven by corporate strategy, how ecommerce affects relationships
with customers and the firm's traditional distribution channel, and how an
ecommerce team might be comprised and managed. There would be technical
stuff as well, but less than there would be in a course taught in a
computer science department.
> Just curious... I was wondering if I could become a Ph.D. in IS :-)
Beats me. Could you? If you have a few years to spare. There are good
programs in Europe, Australia and other places, as well as in the US.
> but if there aren't women what could be the reason???
See the other posts. I really don't know.
