Msis 2006

Abstract

This article presents the MSIS 2006 Model Curriculum and Guidelines for GraduateDegree Programs in Information Systems. As with MSIS 2000 and its predecessors, the objective is to create a model for schools designing or revising an MS curriculum in Information Systems. The curriculum was designed by a joint committee of the Association for Information Systems and the Association for Computing Machinery.MSIS2006 is a major update of MSIS 2000. Features include increasing the number of required courses from 10 to 12 while revising prerequisites, introducing new courses and revising existing courses to modernize the curriculum, and alternatives for phased upgrading from MSIS2000 to MSIS 2006.As with the previous curriculum, it is the product of detailed consultation with the IS community. The curriculum received the endorsement of 8 major IS professional groups.

Estimación de costo de software: Una propuesta de aplicación pedagógica de COCOMO

“…La brecha existente en los modelos curriculares comunmente utilizados como base de programas de formación en ciencias de la computacion, ingeniería del software, ingeniería de sistemas, y campos afines (Cassel et al, 2008;Gorgone et al, 2006;LeBlanc et al, 2006;Pyster, 2009;Topi et al, 2010) abre espacio para utilizar modelos pedagógicos como el propuesto en este trabajo.…”

“…Las guías de currículo para Bachillerato Universitario en Ingeniería de Sistemas (Topi et al, 2010) solo incluyen el tema de forma general como estimación de tanto costos como de beneficios en el curso de Fundamentos de Sistemas de Información. El tema de estimación de costos también se incluye a nivel de posgrados (Pyster, 2009;Gorgone et al, 2006). Aunque el tema de estimación de costos está presente en esta propuestas de lineamientos guía para planes de estudio, existe una carencia significativa de propuestas concretas de abordaje de la ensenanza del tema de los modelos de estimación de costos en los proyectos de software.…”

Human-computer Interaction and Management Information Systems: Foundations

“…HCI courses are offered in many MIS programs (Carey et al, 2004;Chan et al, 2003;Kutzschan and Webster, 2005). HCI is considered an important topic in the most recent model curriculum for masters in information systems majors (Gorgone et al, 2005). Both the total number and the percentage of HCI studies published in primary MIS journals have increased over the recent years (Zhang, 2004).…”

Web Science: Expanding the Notion of Computer Science

“…The ACM has established a systematic program which draws on expertise from across the community and works to consolidate the learning into a coherent form manifested as formal models of various different recommended curricula [1,2,12,15,22]. Preparation for the Computing Curricula 2013 is now underway [19] which it is intended will build on previous model curricula [2,3].…”
