Creación de la línea de investigación en gestión de sistemas de información

Abstract

The Santo Tomás University (USTA) promotes in its institutional research policy, Science Technology and Research (CTeI) strategies of the Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation of Colombia (Minciencias). Under this strategy, the Information Systems Management Study Group was created, attached to the Information Technology research group (GRINTIC) of the Computer Engineering program.

The study group carries out a research process using documentary methodology to create the line of research in Information Systems Management. It begins with the foundation of the line of research based on the object of study of the computer engineering program, information systems (IS); investigates the needs of the global, national, local context and IS trends. Analyzes the relationships of the line of research with the consistency criteria and the fields of action of the USTA according to (Ostos and Cortés, 2019); also, the relationship with the sustainable development goals (SDG) and the vision of The Millennium Project (TMP).

Finally, the proposal for the line of research presented in the renewal of the qualified registration of the program in 2021 is consolidated, confirming the existence of academic and research communities with a clear vocation in the IS, both nationally and internationally; groups, lines, research networks, technology centers, professional associations, magazines and publications are identified in open databases of Minciencias and MEN.
