Research topics in the broad area of information systems engineering and management are discussed. Topic areas may concentrate on industry sectors (e.g., health, education, manufacturing, transportation, energy, environment, agriculture and others), emerging digital technologies and their impacts on the digital enterprises, and/or latest developments in systems engineering principles such as planning, architectures, integration, engineering/re-engineering, and engineering management. Each topic area will be studied in-depth to educate the student in conducting independent research. May be repeated for credit.
