Information Systems Application Development Courses: A Carnegie Mellon University Experience in Global Pedagogy

In this experience report, we describe recent initiatives in global undergraduate Information Systems education at Carnegie Mellon University. The entire systems development core curriculum is now offered at CMU campuses in Pittsburgh and Doha, Qatar. Courses are co-designed and delivered by faculty in both locations with an eye toward consistency of content and assessment, but also with content tuned for local sections. The collaboration and lessons learned among collaborating faculty in two example courses is described.
