The modern world is host to an enormous web of devices interconnected through sensors and networks — known as the Internet of Things (IoT). While IoT has already made its presence felt in the home through smart appliances, it represents a rich opportunity for business.
The Internet of Things: Business Implications and Opportunities online short course from the MIT Sloan School of Management steps beyond the bounds of technical jargon to help you learn about the potential benefits and impact of IoT adoption on an organizational level. Through case studies, interactive media, and peer-to-peer learning, you’ll develop an understanding of the technologies and conditions necessary for successful integration of IoT in a business context. Ultimately, you'll gain the skills and knowledge to create a practical roadmap for the real-world implementation of IoT, and earn a digital certificate of completion from MIT Sloan.
This online program is ideal for managers and aspiring leaders looking to learn about the business opportunities that IoT can offer. Operations managers, entrepreneurs, and business analysts will benefit from understanding the impact and applications of IoT. Software engineers, data analysts, and IT engineers will learn to better communicate the benefits of IoT, while gaining methods for effective implementation.
