Research
Faculty conduct research in four broad areas of MIS:
Technology Adoption and Implementation
Systems Analysis, Design and Development
Collaboration and Coordination
IT Management
A list of the results of faculty in these areas including published papers,
books, white papers, working papers, and presentations is published on the CMISS website located
on the Faculty page within the Resources
link. Copies of the papers are available on request.
Semi-Annual Retreats
Retreats to share knowledge about IT issues are held in the Spring and Fall on the OU Campus each year.
All member organizations and faculty participate in these retreats.
Sharing Information Among Members
Members discuss issues of importance to the IT industry during roundtable sessions at Board meetings
held in the Fall and Spring and at CMISS workshops (see below). These roundtable discussions have
proven to be a very valuable resource to all CMISS members. Members may contact other CMISS members
through the member directory available on the CMISS website.
Access to Students
Students interact with CMISS members' firms by making presentations at the retreats about topics of
interest to members, field project experience, internship lessons and research projects.
Workshops*
Two workshops per year on topics of interest to the CMISS membership, such as IT security,
e-Business, and ERP systems to name a few, will be held on campus. These workshops typically
will be delivered by faculty and industry teams experienced in these areas. Participation in
these workshops is available to all CMISS members and the public. Some associations will accept
our seminars and workshops for continuing professional credit. Please check with the specific
association to see if you can use these activities for such credit.
Seminars*
CMISS members are invited to attend all faculty seminars that are held on the OU Campus.
Occasionally, visiting faculty from other institutions also offer seminars to which CMISS
members are invited.
