Synopsis: This subject is designed to provide students with an understanding of IT management concepts, the role of the IT management function within organisations, and those issues which pose the most complex problems for IT managers. The emphasis of the subject is on management practices that impact the productivity and effectiveness of the IT management function, and that deliver to the client systems which are of high quality, and strategically aligned with the organisation's goals and priorities.
