CAS in Global Enterprise Technology

The Certificate of Advanced Study in Global Enterprise Technology (CAS in GET) is an interdisciplinary program designed to prepare students with the fundamental knowledge useful in pursuing careers in large global organizations where they will be working with large-scale, complex organizational and information systems. It is a unique combination of coursework and experiential learning that can be tailored to a student’s desired emphasis of information management or information systems technology.

The CAS in GET will focus upon building three essential types of cognitive skills:
  1. Analysis: When given a particular policy or strategy and a particular concept of operations for an information technology system, CAS in GET graduates will be able to determine if the concept of operations falls within the stated policy or strategy
  2. Synthesis: CAS in GET graduates will be able to synthesize information goals, policies and strategies from the knowledge of the specifics of the enterprise. Given these goals, policies and strategies, CAS in GET graduates will be able to devise concepts for information technology systems that satisfy these target end states.
  3. Evaluation: given the goals, policies and strategies, as well as information technology systems for an enterprise, CAS in GET graduates will be able to evaluate and measure if the systems as a whole operate within the stated policy and support the stated mission, goals, and objectives for the enterprise.
