Management of Information Systems

Final Paper and Presentation Requirements

Spring 2016

You are required to write a 5 to 7 pages’ research paper on a topic related to managing information systems. Your paper however must be an applied research paper. In other words, once you choose your topic, you are to research the application of this topic to a particular business, industry, or perhaps country (example SCM and its applications at Wal-Mart; Cloud Computing and Amazon’s Web Services). I would recommend that you include the following components within your paper:

Research on your specific topic (most important)

General information pertaining to your company/industry

Application of your topic within that particular company/industry

Content of the paper is extremely important, as is your understanding of the application of the topic. I will review punctuation, spelling, sentence structure etc. as part of my review of your paper. You are required to use a minimum of four sources as the basis of this paper. The paper must be properly referenced, and a works cited page must be included. You may use sources from the internet, but as with any other source, they must be properly cited. Papers must be submitted through Safe-Assign on Blackboard.

Your paper should include a cover page, 5 to 7 pages of content, and a works cited page. I recommend (but not require) that you follow either the APA or MLA research paper style. This paper is due no later than the start of class on Monday, February 22nd. Late papers will be accepted but with significant grade penalty.
