Abstract

The course CS8 “Organization of Programming Languages” of Curriculum '78 is presented in the context of a program for Business Information Systems at a small business college. The applicability of this course to the Information Systems curriculum is considered. It is asserted that the successful inclusion of this course suggests the desirability of including the other core computer science material, as defined in Curriculum '78, in a program for Information Systems.
