  • ECON 321: Economics of Information Technology

    3.00 Credits
    Saint John Fisher University

    This course familiarizes students with evolving business and social practices and structures as advancing technology makes information more accessible and valuable. While the technology infrastructure rapidly changes, underlying economic motivations do not. We rely upon models involving switching costs, network externalities, property rights, and market structures to develop your understanding of how technological innovation affects firms (e.g., hiring training and outsourcing decisions, information management, product and pricing choices, etc.) and individuals (e.g., education, attainment, career choices, consumption decisions, etc.). These concepts are then applied to contemporary events and practices to enhance a student's ability to use available technologies to access information, to assist in processing that information, and to effectively present findings. Prerequisites: ECON 105C, 221.
