Abstract

This paper looks at the ERP offerings at 17 universities that are accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB), have a concentration, major or 4 year degree in Information Systems (IS) and who also belong to the SAP University Alliance (SAPUA). SAP was chosen because it is by far the largest ERP company and is the number one software producer in the world by sales volume. It was intended to find out what are the characteristics of the IS programs that offer ERP. The data was gathered by looking at the web pages of each of the IS programs. A comparison of the IS offerings of these universities to IS’2002 is also made. The major deficiencies of programs that do not meet the IS’2002 Curriculum are listed. In addition, a preliminary indication of how these universities would fare under the ABET IS accreditation criteria is made.
