Stream Outline

Businesses today conduct more and more of their work online, and there is a need for computing professionals who understand how to develop online systems, integrate them into the workflow of modern businesses, and build connections between businesses. eCommerce systems are typically built on top of database technology and run over the web, whether as user interfaces or as online services.

The Electronic Commerce stream in the Computer Science program exposes students to a range of core network, database and interface technologies, the principles behind them, and techniques for analysing them, and explores how these technologies might be used to create effective online services.
