Summary
The course consists in the presentation of several major - strategic and tactical - changes induced by the introduction of ICT on the classical functions (marketing, logistics, human resource and strategy) of an organization. In this framework, the course is divided in 4 modules. Each module has three parts:
1. A company representative will explain an ICT integration in her/his company (a company which either designs or uses this ICT);
2. A professor will give an academic point of view about ICT impacts on his/her area of interest;
3. Students by group will deepen and enlarge their knowledge about the same issue in analysing a case, reading articles, etc. in classroom.
In the second part of the course, students are required to analyze in groups one technological change and its impact on an existing organization from a managerial point of view and to present their solution.
