  abstract =     "Information Systems is one of the most dynamic and
                 important professions of the 80's. There are a number
                 of colleges and universities that offer baccalaureate
                 degrees in this field. However, because of Information
                 Systems' dynamic nature, many of these programs are now
                 out of date. In this paper a modern, comprehensive
                 curriculum leading to a baccalaureate degree in
                 Information Systems is presented. This curriculum was
                 developed in response to the needs of the student
                 population and the requirements of industry. The
                 curriculum was designed by first identifying career
                 paths followed by students that graduate with an
                 Information Systems degree from San Diego State
                 University and then analyzing the areas of knowledge
                 required. In addition, an effort was made to anticipate
                 the future directions of the field of information
                 systems in terms of need and technology. Relying on
                 this study, plus feedback from graduates and employers,
                 five major paths were determined. They were
                 Applications Programming, Systems Analysis, Information
                 Systems Management, Automated Administrative Systems,
                 and Graduate Bound (students who would directly pursue
                 further graduate study). To serve these related, but
                 varied, areas, a common core of courses, as well as
                 specific courses for each track, were developed. These
                 core and specialty area courses are described.",
