Business 1000 gives students an overview of the study of business early in their college studies so that they can decide which field to major in and how the world of business works. The class is broken in four distinct parts--finance, marketing, management and an introductory section that covers ethics, global business and economics. Each of these parts covers the basic concepts found in one of the areas a student might select as a major. Each section also covers the current issues in today's business world. These are the kinds of topics likely to be encountered in the current business press. Lectures and recitation sections are both supplemented with real-world case histories designed to highlight a specfic topical, and often controversial, issue. In the recitation sections, students write about, debate and otherwise present their ideas on each of the current issue topics covered in the large lectures.

This course is designed to give students an understanding of: (1) how information technology has created a fertile ground for the emergence of commerce on the Internet; (2) how firms are using the new technology to create innovative offerings and sustain competitive advantage; (3) how, because of this innovation, businesses are forced to rethink strategies and management practices; (4) how the new electronic medium is being applied in specific marketing domains (i.e., distribution, retailing, market research, advertising, etc.); and (5) how environmental factors (i.e., political, ethical, and legal factors) affect the revolutionary path to the new economy. More specifically, we explore how the current revolution in computer and information technology has enabled firms to engage in commerce around the world at the touch of a button. The Internet is a prototype of the global information infrastructure that will lay the platform for the electronic commerce of the twenty-first century and redefine the pace and breadth of business innovation. Many experts argue that the electronic revolution will result in increased power to consumers and this will in turn place electronic marketing at the center of this revolution.
