Center for Information Systems Research (CISR)

The Center for Information Systems Research (CISR) conducts field-based research on issues related to the management and use of information technology (IT) in complex organizations. Established at the MIT Sloan School of Management in 1974, MIT Sloan CISR’s mission is to develop concepts and frameworks to help executives address the IT-related challenges of leading increasingly dynamic, global, and information-intensive organizations. The relevance of the center’s research is ensured by the active participation of more than 70 global patron and sponsor organizations from a wide range of industries. MIT Sloan CISR’s “classic” research topics are IT portfolio management, enterprise architecture, IT governance and IT risk. Current research topics include IT innovation, Web 2.0, cloud computing, reuse, and IT’s new look.
