Department of Information Systems Information Systems has emerged in the 1990's as a new area of academic and commercial interest which goes beyond the exploitation of computer-based technologies. IT focuses on a technology driven system design whereas Information Systems puts the human being at the centre of the systems design and development process.
Attention is given here to the design of solutions to meet the needs of people in organisations.
The Department of Information Systems supports undergraduate and postgraduate course provisions across a range of information systems disciplines. There is a very active research programme involving all staff which includes European Union funded work. Our aim is to establish a department which has the reputation as a centre of excellence for research and scholastic studies in information systems. The department has been established with a staff grouping who all have an extensive research and teaching background. I hope you find the information here useful.
