Introducing Client/server Technologies in Information Systems Curricula

Abstract

One goal of information systems (IS) departments in business schools is to train IS professionals with the necessary technical skills to support the IS function in companies. This paper suggests that changes are needed for most current IS curricula to meet the technical requirements of the client/server (C/S) world of technologies. It is hoped that the ideas presented here will stimulate debate and discussions as to how this transition can be accomplished. © 1997, Authors. All rights reserved.
