INFS1000: Digital Business, Work and Life

2027 unit information

You already live a digital life. You stream, search, shop, and share, all through digital tools built by businesses. But have you ever thought about how those systems actually work, how technology, people, and decisions fit together? And why some businesses get it right while others fail? This unit starts with what you already know as a customer, user, or student, and builds from there. You will learn to look at digital businesses the way analysts and consultants do: understanding how people, processes, and technology fit together, how data and information drive everything from what appears on your screen to how businesses operate. The emphasis is on thinking clearly about business problems, not on technical detail. You don鈥檛 need an IT background; you need curiosity and a willingness to ask good questions. This unit is designed as your starting point. It gives you the language, the frameworks, and the confidence to engage with digital business concepts across your major and beyond. Whether you see yourself in a large organisation or a startup, in a specialist role or as a consultant, the ability to understand how technology and information enable digital business is what you will rely on throughout your career.
