Abstract

This panel discussion will provide an update of the ongoing work to revise the ACM/AIS graduate level

curriculum recommendation for Information Systems (MSIS). The panel will consist of the members of the

task force, who will report on a) changes in the direction of the task force’s work since summer 2015 position

paper; b) results of the fall 2015 data collection; and c) key decisions regarding the curriculum architecture

made by the time of the panel. A major part of the panel will be reserved for open discussion and participant

feedback, which will directly impact the work of the task force.
