Information Systems for Business

Information systems are a key component of every business you will ever work in. Information systems are about getting the right information to the right person when needed, to help them make the right decision. This can be costly and complicated to implement, but all systems must be able to use technology to deliver business value. We look at the framework of business forces, enabling technology and management potential that underpin information systems. Bridging technology and business needs, you will develop work-ready knowledge of contemporary information systems. Topics include business strategy, intelligence and analytics, networking and cloud computing, database management, information security, digital goods and customer profiling. Focusing on applications for business problems, you are taught how to mine real-life datasets, create data visualisations, explore data management in social media and analyse the ways to deploy cloud computing in Australian businesses.

Management Information Systems

The widespread application of digital information systems in society today produces vast amounts of data. Appropriate management of this data is essential for it to be an effective tool for decision making and value adding. Introducing you to the concepts of database design, this subject takes you from the conceptual level through to the physical level of database management systems, developing your understanding of the techniques underpinning these systems. You will study relational databases and learn how to model, create and efficiently query them using Structured Query Language (SQL), using relational algebra to provide more generalised data and query definitions within relational database systems. Design strategies to avoid redundancy, concepts of functional dependency, normalisation and relational decomposition are examined. Exploring approaches for connecting external applications to databases, you will also gain an awareness of security issues involved with data access.

Database Management Systems

Modern accounting information systems allow organisations to make timely decisions based on reliable data and evidence. To future proof your career, you need the up-to-date skills and knowledge to apply this technology in your role. Studying this subject will equip you with the skills to effectively use software to produce information critical to business success. You will gain practical experience using an accounting software package to generate financial statements. You will hone your spreadsheet skills to build models to meet managers’ needs and enhance your database management skills to successfully handle large volumes of data. With a focus on internal control systems and the impact of cloud computing, you will analyse the interactions between technology and accounting systems.
