(formerly B ITM 211) Project Mentorship

Catalog description

(Formerly B ITM 211.) This course builds up on the trajectory course, B FOR 210, where students act as security risk consultants working with a firm. The students will serve as mentors to and assist students enrolled in B FOR 210. In addition, students will work with the instructional team in reviewing and evaluating student work and presentations as well as participate in weekly calls with the "client." In the process, students will also gain knowledge in the new case topic used for the current class (usually a topic in emerging technology, e.g., Cloud computing, social media, information security risk assessment). Students in this course will interface with the instructor(s) for B FOR 210 and will interface with firm in development of, research for, and evaluation of cases and case materials. Only one of B ITM 211 and B FOR 211 may be taken for credit. Prerequisite(s): B FOR 210 and permission of instructor.
