Better utilization of time

Driving some to wrong path

IT in the academic sector

Research universities will lose out competitively to other higher education segments. Well-endowed highly selective institutions will do better than average.

Liberal arts institutions will be hard-pressed financially as the cost of labor continues to rise relative to the rate of inflation.

More innovative nontraditional providers will take over a greater share of the undergraduate education market. They will deliver higher education more cheaply.

The knowledge base will atrophy as research universities falter.

IT in Medical Research Improving health care system Reducing expenses Increasing patient safety

Information Technology in Government Innovation New technology offers new opportunities Advancement in Information Technology has created new

dimension in research and technology by removing from the researchers the constraints of speed, cost and distance.

The amount of data that can be analyzed has expanded, as has the complexity of analyses

And researchers can collaborate more widely and efficiently.
