Information Technology (IT) is transforming
the way people work, communicate, and learn. This transformation raises important
questions about how people and organizations will operate as IT
 | blurs the boundaries organizations, markets and communities |
| changes the nature of work, coordination and production |
| shrinks the barriers of space, time and complexity |
| redefines the notion of intelligence |
The IT
Group at MIT's Sloan
School of Management engages students of computer science, sociology, economics,
psychology, engineering, organizational science and other disciplines in answering these
questions.
In the process, IT faculty and students raise new questions and generate new technologies, propelling the changes that they study.
Several research centers support IT research and facilitate interactions among faculty, students, research staff, government and industry.
