MDA Journal: MIS Schools in Decline
In his Column this month, David Frankel discusses the alarming and seemingly precipitous decline in MIS enrollments in colleges and universities, to the extent that some programs have shut down. David makes the point that if this downward trend continues, it could threaten prospects for the continued development of BPM that depends so heavily on a future generation of trained experts. Read his Column for the details of what is happening and what might be done to correct the situation.
