Abstract

A constant in the advertisements for most entry-level information technology (IT) positions is the phrase "experience required or preferred." Obviously, it creates a dilemma for computer science and management information systems graduating students; they can't get the job for lack of experience, and can't acquire experience without landing a job first. Traditionally, practical assignments and individual/group projects are the approaches employed for this purpose. This paper presents strategies that go beyond the traditional approaches to provide real-life practical experiences to students in advanced computing courses.
