Book Information for Professor Weiss' CGS Courses
Although the semester does not start until
Monday August 21 and you will not have course
access until then, I wanted to pre-emptively make sure everyone has the correct book/course materials
order. You will not be able to follow along with the course unless you have these materials.
CGS-2100 Computer Applications for Business Materials
CGS-2518 Computer Data Analysis Materials
All courses require either one or two books and software materials (the materials are different).
Pricing is the same no matter what.
The book for this course is in digital format only and includes access to a state-of-the-art simulation software package called SIMnet. These materials are required, and you will not be able to follow along with the course unless you have access to SIMnet. You will have access to the course materials when the course starts, even if you have opted out of Panther Book Pack. You do not have to -- and should not -- buy anything during the first week to have access to materials. At some point later in the course, students who have opted out of Panther Book Pack will be prompted to pay about $60 for continued access to the materials.
This price is only available inside of Canvas, so don't try to buy an access code elsewhere or you will pay more. In fact, you should not do anything until prompted. More information will be forthcoming when the course goes live.
