The scope of the field now encompasses aspects of globalization, and societal and ethical issues more generally. This is in addition to the development of organizational information systems, and the use made and impacts of information and communication technologies within and between organizations that had been the core of the (management) information systems (MIS) field previously. The research approaches adopted in IS range from focused, laboratory experimentation to field studies: qualitative and mixed mode approaches are increasingly common as well as quantitative approaches. The philosophical underpinnings of IS research range from the positivist, to the interpretivist and the critical. Typically Offered: Every two or more years
