Abstract
This paper contains the results of a survey of 126 doctoral programs in Information Systems in the USA and Canada. Each educational institution's website was searched for applicable information about its doctoral program for information systems. This paper summarizes the similarities and differences of the programs of study, such as which college or school houses the program, prerequisites, foundational courses such as statistics and research methods, the number of core or concentration courses required, minor requirements, exam requirements, etc. The information gathered will be useful for institutions desiring to start a program or modify their existing PhD in Information Systems program, and for schools wishing to compare their program with other programs.
