In today’s ever changing world of commerce, achieving success is impossible without good quality information. Sophisticated information systems are the key to both information management and in turn the effective and efficient operation of business processes. However, technology is no longer the biggest challenge. Businesses are now faced with the greater hurdle of intelligently utilising the vast amounts of information they possess to support almost every aspect of its operations. At The University of Sydney, BIS students learn how BIS concepts and practices support many aspects of today’s businesses, especially solving complex business problems in accounting, economics, finance, marketing, human resources, to name a few. Core areas include information management, business innovation, business process improvement, enterprise systems, and project management. |

Studying BIS gives students the opportunity to understand how businesses operate and benefit from using new and emergent technologies. Learning how to implement, use, and manage various types of information systems offers students the advantage of knowing how to creatively solve business problems by employing current technologies in new and innovative ways.
The Discipline’s continued partnership with BISA in 2011 plays a significant role in raising awareness about BIS amongst students and creating opportunities for them to form strategic relationships with industry representatives that will play an important role in their career development.
