- Description
- Information Systems Seminar, Carlton Hotel, Johannesburg, 10 June 1981. Should a Vice-Chancellor be a computer scientist? As I prepared my thoughts to address you this morning it seemed to me that there were three topics of potential interest to this audience on which a person with my background could dwell. 1) Are universities turning out graduates with the right backgrounds (a) to manage companies in which information systems will play an increasingly important role and (b) to drive the information systems effectively? 2) The proper role of the universities in research and development with regard to information systems 3) The effective administrative use of information systems in universities considered as organisations which have as great an obligation to be efficient as businesses.
