  • Information Systems Education in Kenya: Students’ Specialization Choice Trends (A Case Study of Kenya Polytechnic University College)
    International Journal of Education and Development using Information and Communication Technology (IJEDICT), 2013, Vol. 9, Issue 3, pp. 137-161 Information systems education in Kenya: Students’ specialization choice trends (a case study of Kenya Polytechnic University College) Atieno A. Ndede-Amadi Technical University of Kenya, Nairobi, Kenya ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to determine the time and level of Information Systems (IS) awareness among Kenyan university students and the choice of IS as a field of specialization. The study posited that the choice of a field of specialization is dependent upon a student’s awareness of its existence, its utilization in the real world, its career opportunities, and its strategic importance to the country’s economic development agenda. It posited further that early IS awareness could have a positive impact on the choice of IS as a field of specialization. The underlying assumptions were that the time of IS awareness as a field of specialization among Kenyan university business students was late and levels low, leading to possible low levels of choice of IS as a field of specialization. Using the survey method, the case study found late and low levels of IS awareness as a field of specialization among university business students. Future studies linking time and levels of IS awareness with choice of IS as a filed of specialization and with existence of requisite IS skills in the country (or lack thereof) are suggested. Keywords: Specialization, Awareness, Systems Analytical Skills, Joint Admissions Board, Public Universities, University Colleges, Parallel Programmes. 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 The History of Information Systems Although the history of Information Systems (IS) as a subject of study only spans six decades, it is among disciplines that have done much towards advancing development of the human race (Jorgenson and Vu, 2009).

  • How Are the Engineering Technology Graduates Doing? a Rochester Institute of Technology 25 Year Survey
    Session 2647 How Are The Engineering Technology Graduates Doing? A Rochester Institute of Technology 25 Year Survey John Stratton Rochester Institute of Technology Abstract: A study of the long term progress of the baccalaureate engineering technology (ET) graduates from the Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) was undertaken during 1997. Approximately 550 of RIT’s 3,000 graduates and 250 of their direct supervisors replied to the survey. The results and analysis show that RIT’s ET alumni are performing effectively in a wide variety of career paths, using salary, position, and satisfaction data and comments. Introduction: The Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT), in Rochester, NY, is an independent university of approximately 13,300 students. Within the College of Applied Science and Technology, the engineering technology (ET) programs are administered by three departments: Civil, Electrical/Computer/Telecommunications, and Manufacturing/Mechanical Engineering Technology. The programs have a (headcount) enrollment of approximately 1,250 students, or almost 10% of the RIT enrollment. RIT’s ET baccalaureate programs were started in 1970 for transfer students only, and the first class graduated in 1973. The original programs used the Bachelor of Technology designation, with the programs changing to Bachelor of Science in 1990. First and second year students were included starting in 1988. The ET programs are offered co-op for day students and most programs are scheduled evenings for the employed part time students. RIT’s ET accreditation was initially granted in 1975 by what has become the Technology Accreditation Commission of the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (TAC of ABET). Initial programs were in Electrical and Mechanical Engineering Technology, with Civil Engineering Technology (1971), Manufacturing Engineering Technology (1980), Computer Engineering Technology (1985), Telecommunications Engineering Technology (1991) and Electrical/Mechanical Engineering Technology (1992) being added at the dates listed.
