About the Course

Firms make significant investments in IT. In the IS/IT Governance course we will discuss how to govern IT to make sure that the IT investments contribute to organizational goals and strategies. Firms need to formally evaluate significant IT investments. IT investments are also risky, so firms need to consider the risk associated with the investments to appropriately evaluate the investment. We will discuss how to evaluate IT investments. Firms usually make multiple IT investments in a given year. In this course we will discuss how to evaluate a portfolio of IT investments. Firms need a mechanism to charge users for the IT investments made to encourage prudent consumption of IT resources. We will discuss different mechanisms for charging for IT that incents users to spend IT dollars wisely. Finally, IT investments are made to generate value for the firm. This requires that employees actually use the new IT systems that is developed. Thus, in the IS/IT Governance course we will discuss strategies to make sure that users use the new system so that the firm derives value from its IT investments....

The course material should be updated to cover the Agile Transformations that have accelerated across multiple industries over the last 10-15 years....especially discussing IT Governance with respect to Scaled Agile. This looked to be the instructors' first online course and it was a bit rough...he was nervous and fidgety. If that was the case and the course was created in 2018 why wasn't it updated and re-uploaded by the University....the content could have been updated and the same instructor is, likely, a lot more smoother and confident.

Good content, however poor delivery by instructor. Quality of the slides, ok, could have provided a few more reading materials.

I really wanted to learn something from this class, but the instructor, Gautam Ray, moves so much while he is talking that it is distracting. He wiggles back and forth in front of the slides he is showing and it obstructs the view. I am halfway through week 1 and I don't know that I can continue.

Should be updated with latest statistics and latest tendancy.

Covid have introduced new changes and all these changes should be reflected to this trainings.
