Human Resource Management in the BSIT/BSCS Curicculum(Assignment No. 5)

Human Resource Management in the BSIT/BSCS Curicculum

In my own understanding, the subject Human Resource Management is included in the BSIT/BSCS curicculum for us BSIT/BSCS students know how a specific company look for employees in a specific job in the right time. Since we are BSIT/BSCS students, we are ought to know how this HRM works in an organization since we are the most important employees inside a company. Why I say so???Because we have the knowledge and we can be responsible to make the company rise(successful) and make it fall(failed).

Reflection on the 21st Century Corporations(Assignment No. 4)

The 21st Century Corporations

Obviously, we are in the 21st century where most of the corporation is undergoing a radical transformation.

The very core of today's century corporation is technology, or what people called it digitization. It means replacing human minds and hands in the organization with computers and networks.
Digitizing everything from employee benefits to accounts receivables to product design cuts time, cost, and people from operations, resulting in huge savings and vast improvements in speed.

In this case, the concept of Human Resource Management is being neglected. As what I've known, humans or people are the one who is possible for the success of the company. Even though technology makes the work faster and easier, the employees in the organization are being affected because the tendency is that they will not have a work anymore.

Having technology in our generation is good when it is being used in the right way!!

Evaluation on the Downsizing of Boeing Company(Assignment No. 3)

Boeing Company

“Boeing” is said to be the world's largest aerospace and defense company which operates in over 90 countries and claims the title of America's largest exporter. It has three divisions: commercial airplanes (50.3% of revenue), integrated defense systems (48.3%), and a small aircraft leasing subsidiary (1.2%). The most prominent is the commercial airplane section which faces intense competition from its Airbus line of planes.

Since Boeing is known to be the only remaining U.S manufacturer of large commercial aircraft, they will be making military and special aircraft ten years from now. But according to Alan MacPherson, professor and chair of the Department of Geography in the College of Arts and Science its days of manufacturing large passengers jets will probably have to come to an end.

After the incident of The World Trade Center and Pentagon on September 11. The senior Boeing officials sensed that airplane manufacturer would suffer drastically on this happening. Because of this event, the Boeing Commercial President and CEO Alan Mulally consulted Chairman Philip M. Condit and made the decision on September 18 to cut 20%( 20,000) to 30%( 30,000) of 96,000 people in Seattle area employed by Boeing’s commercial airplane unit. This decision was hard to make by the Boeing’s Company because such dealings and actions will affect the lives of the people who work in their company.

The following are the evidence noted by Pritchard and MacPherson:

1. Boeing's sale or closure of approximately 10 million square feet of space devoted to commercial and military aircraft production in the past decade

2. a 60 percent decline in Boeing's commercial aircraft production, with less than 50 aircraft in backlogs of four of its six commercial aircraft models, when most viable, mature aircraft programs have backlogs in excess of 100

3. the lack of new aircraft programs—Boeing's most recent aircraft is the 777, designed in the early 1990s

4. Boeing's announcement on Dec. 20 that it would shelve its futuristic, high-speed, sonic-cruiser design in favor of a cheaper alternative, its second cancellation of a proposed commercial jetliner program

This strategy will probably be positive because aviation services and high-tech military aircraft manufacturing have had higher profit margins than the commercial side.

The effect of this strategy is lossing the members or the employees of this company who mainly do reviting and aircraft assembly. And now, they will be needing people who have new sets of skills that will fit on a specific position.

I conclude that downsizing could be a hard decision for the company to be made because the lives of the employees will be affected. On the other hand, it will be helpful for the company to maintain their standing in the industry to be able to compete to other companies.

Job Description(Assignment No. 1)

MY JOB DESCRIPTION

All students entering college assume that whenever they finish their course, they will tend to have a job related to their particular fields. Haven't you observe nowadays that some BSIT graduates tend to land a job not related to IT Industry??Not only BSIT Graduates but some other courses too.

Information Technology is a course which studies, implements, develops and design computer-based information system particularly software applications and computer hardwares. In that definition i found in the internet, it simply defines that IT inlcudes the study why certain softwares are being created, how computer hardware functions and many more features related in Information Technology. The industry of IT is particularly wants to have a good IT graduates that can work and do specific activities that is related to this field.

As a BSIT student, i want to have a job related to IT Industry like a Computer Programmer, System Analyzer, Database Designer, Web Designer and many more. For now, there is no specific job description i want to have in the future. It is still confusing whether which of the available jobs i want to hold.I have no idea yet what specific field I'm interested and what i like most to do. What I'm thinking for now is that to finish this course with full knowledge in all its fields and subjects.

In addition to that, I also want to have more knowledge about what BSIT course can do and how it help and affect the community. When i hold a job in the future, I hope that i'll be enjoying and comfortable to work with. I also want to have a job that gives a high salary that would be enough for my family.
