Constructing a New College IT Curriculum?

Posted by Cliff on from the how-would-you-do-it dept.

slonkak asks: "For extra credit in my Management & Information Systems we were asked to redevelop the IT curriculum. Interning at a government organization for the past 5 years, I have a good idea of what I'd like to know graduating from college. Here are the two tracks I came up with. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to improve this curriculum? I would like more experience members of the Slashdot community to give their input on what they would like to see new hires have a good understanding of." Yes, this one may sound like Slashdot-Do-My-Homework, but the underlying question is still worthwhile. For you IT Managers out there, what do you expect someone with a college degree to know? For you prospective CS Students who might be reading, what would you like to learn while obtaining that degree?

    redevelop the IT curriculum.

    For you prospective CS Students

    For the MILLIONTH time. CS != IT (see, if you're IT, you might not get that)


    IT is CS lite.
