Bachelor of Science in Information Science, Systems, and Technology - Networks, Crowds, and Markets

Information Science offers a Bachelor of Science through the College of Engineering in Information Science, Systems, and Technology (ISST). The ISST major studies the design and management of complex information systems, with an emphasis on information systems engineering in broad application contexts, where issues at the confluence of information science, technology, and management are the primary concerns. Students take classes in operations research modeling techniques, statistics, computer science, economics, and the social and organizational contexts in which transformative information systems exist. The BS in Information Science, Systems, and Technology, (ISST) allows students to study the creation, representation, organization, application, and analysis of information in digital form.

This concentration helps students to understand formal models, data and policy issues surrounding networked systems. Models: Foundations of formal analysis and design of interconnected systems--understanding networks and human behavior drawing on ideas from economics, sociology, computing and information science, and applied mathematics. Data: Tools and techniques to analyze data related to analyzing networked behavior. Policy/Values: Ethical, legal and social issues around networked behavior and data, and designing networked systems. Students interested in analytical frameworks for online social systems and formal models of human behavior and decision making, applying formal models for analysis and design of online systems.
