3.00 Credits
A survey of basic hardware and data communications principles. The course discusses topics in: machine programming sequencing and data structure addressing methods; processor evolution and design; memory structures; peripherals; fundamental communications concepts; and data communication hardware devices. The course objective is to give students an appreciation for the concepts upon which computer information systems architectures are built. Students are expected to invest substantial amounts of time and energy in: reading from the text and other professional sources; completing homework problems in a thorough and professional manner; and demonstrating mastery of course concepts on quizzes and exams. Pre: CSCI 1011 or CSCI 1041 or consent. Graduate standing.

3.00 Credits
A course designed for entering IS graduate students. The course: acquaints students with the theories of current and historical importance; introduces or reinforces the tenets of the scientific method; introduces the faculty, previews key concept areas being taught in the program; discusses research designs and methods appropriate to the MSIS program; and introduces students to the hardware, software, and communications skills to be used throughout the program of studies. Pre: Graduate standing.

3.00 Credits
IS 6010 is a course in applied research methods. Its principal objective is to help students deepen their understanding of research analysis techniques and become proficient users and consumers of modern statistical analysis procedures. Participants in this course will learn to apply the scientific method to investigations of research problems arising from observations of social problems and organization-based phenomena. Students will study acceptable methods for collecting, organizing, analyzing, and testing data; and for communicating findings in a professional research environment. Pre: IS 6000 or PSOC 6005.
-
3.00 Credits
A course that combines the study of traditional project management topics with modern methods of software support. Students study the planning, scheduling, operational management, and evaluation phases of project management. Particular emphasis is placed on detecting and accommodating discrepancies between planned and actual task accomplishment. The course intends that students become proficient in the use of project management software to support PERT, Critical Path Analysis, and Resource Management. Pre: Graduate standing.
-
3.00 Credits
An intermediate-level course in modern methods for the development of large-scale software systems. Visual Basic, Java, or other modern applications development languages will illustrate key principles. Students design and implement program solutions to commonly occurring business problems. They also analyze problems and evaluate competing solutions for correctness, efficiency, and effectiveness. Students are expected to invest substantial amounts of time and energy in: reading from the text and other professional sources; completing analysis, design, and coding problems in a thorough and professional manner; and demonstrating mastery of course concepts on quizzes and exams. Pre: IS 5050. Graduate standing.
-
3.00 Credits
A classical course in database theory that comprehensively covers alternative methods for design, implementation, and management of database systems. The course especially focuses on the decision-making process with regards to analyzing needs, and capabilities while minimizing potential problems. Students investigate historical and contemporary thinking concerning data, database design, administration of database assets, and management of the database process. Pre: IS 5050 and IS 5060. Graduate standing.
-
3.00 Credits
A required course for many graduate students at Hawai'i Pacific University. Its purpose is twofold: one, to ensure that all graduate students understand the building block concepts associated with modern computer and communications systems; and, two, to sensitize students to the business and management implications of information systems. Using a case-study approach, students investigate the effects of technology-enabling changes on the health and welfare of corporate entities and learn to evaluate the appropriateness of competing IS-based solutions to commonly occurring opportunities in a modern global economy. All students learn to use online research services. Pre: CSCI 3201 and either MS 6000 or QM 6010 Graduate standing.
-
3.00 Credits
A rigorous academic experience that will help students master the fundamentals of modern systems analysis and design. Object-oriented methods and tools are introduced, studied, mastered and compared to structured methods in systems analysis and design (SSAD) as a means for establishing a sophisticated knowledge base from which to make decisions regarding appropriate software development strategies. Students are expected to have already mastered SSAD methods before enrolling in IS 6110. Pre: IS 6050 and IS 6065. Graduate standing.
-
3.00 Credits
A professionally relevant development experience that helps students master the fundamentals of modern systems design, development, and implementation. Working as members of a project team, students produce a software system that solves a nontrivial problem by adhering to a formal set of development techniques (e.g., structured walkthroughs, code inspections, proofs of correctness). Equally important, students plan, schedule, manage, and evaluate the development process using industry standard project management techniques. Pre: IS 6110 and IS 6020. Graduate standing.
-
3.00 Credits
A course in the technical and management aspects of modern telecommunications systems. Topics include: communications fundamentals; data and multimedia communications hardware and software; design and management of communications facilities and systems; comparative telecommunications standards and architectures, and migration strategies from existing to new systems. Pre: IS 5070. Graduate standing.
