THE GLOBAL IS EDUCATION REPORT 2016
Call for Contributions. Register your IS Educational Programs

OBJECTIVE
The AIS Education Web project "EDUglopedia.org" features 2,000 courses in more than 400 programs offered by over 300 institutions in 69 countries (as per November 2015). In order to make this data more accessible, AIS intends to publish an Annual Global IS Education Report that presents the data in a compact form and to disseminate this report to relevant stakeholders via different channels.

FORMAT
The Global IS Education Report 2016 will
- be available in an electronic format
- list all IS educational programs by region
- include each institution's profile
- list the courses per program
- provide links, and contact persons for each program
- provide a section of basic descriptive statistics for each program

DATA
The programs registered at EDUglopedia.org will serve as a foundation for the report. The platform will also make it possible for the programs to update their data over the year. The annual report will provide a snapshot of the programs included in the database. An editorial team will evaluate the data provided by each institution, and decide whether or not a program will be included in the report. All programs that will fulfill the following criteria will be included: (a) the program is offered by an academic higher education institution, (b) the data is complete in that it provides an institutional profile, a program profile, and course descriptions.
