This course builds on the foundations of IT acquired during the first two years of cadet experiences to help prepare cadets to be IT-fluent officers. It provides a deeper understanding of sensor and communications technologies; computer processing, storage, and networks; interaction of IT components; IT-enabled decision making; and the evolving legal and ethical framework surrounding use of IT. Information Assurance issues are addressed throughout the course. A group project analyzing the suitability of a specified information system to meet an operational requirement is required.
