General Information

The objectives of this course are for students to understand the concepts of and how to apply systems theory, the technological capabilities of databases, and the design and implementation of internal controls within accounting information systems (AISs).

Students are encouraged to make full use of the internet and computer technologies. For example, communication between the student, the instructor and other students is facilitated through the use of the e-mail, Discussion and Chat Room functions in WebCT, which we will be exploring as we proceed through the course(a set of tools that facilitate learning, communication and collaboration through the use of the Internet and computers).
