Diversity Impacts in Information Systems

Catalog description

Description: Critical analysis of the impact of technology on socially-defined classifications such as race, ethnicity, age, gender, sexuality, and disability; and how those groups affect technology industries. Through reading, observation, discussion, and writing; students will have their own perceptions challenged to better understand technology interaction through and with diverse populations, and how relationships between those groups may be improved or worsened as a result of mediated communications.
