Goal:
The course aims to provide students with an insight into the challenges faced by many large organizations today. The challenges of scale (i.e., the challenges of managing and organization with 100,000 desktops are very different to those managing 100), commercial pricing, managing service quality, managing risk, and working effectively in a global organization will be discussed.
An appreciation for these challenges and how industry is meeting them will be developed via a review of a number of case studies and practical hands-on examples. Students completing this course will develop a deep appreciation for enterprise technology.
