Infusion of Electronic Commerce into the Information Systems Curriculum

Business school information systems programs seek to integrate information technology and business knowledge. Business schools constantly revise IS programs to stay abreast of IT changes. The emergence of e-commerce and e-business represent one such development. This study analyzes the impact of e-commerce content on business IS curricula in the U.S. Over half of the schools included such material as either required or elective. Most business schools were found to provide skills in client-side Web development. Fewer covered material on server-side Web development. E-commerce knowledge and skills have been incorporated into most undergraduate IS programs.
