A major 'gap' exists between managers in industrial, commercial and governmental organisations who understand the business but are 'frightened' of the technology, and the 'techies' who are very good at their jobs but have little or no knowledge of how to run a business. This 'gap' is hurting businesses and in many organisations it is getting wider. Graduates of this course will be able to make a direct contribution to closing this 'gap' by providing the knowledge of both management and information systems.
Past students from the course have progressed to positions of IT Director, Chief Information Officer and Managing Director.
