The Advisory Board was established in late 1991 as part of the Department's core strategy of building closer relationships with leading people and organisations involved with Information Systems. The Board meets regularly, either in Grahamstown or in one of the leading centres throughout the country, and considers matters pertinent to the Department and the Information Systems industry.

Members of the Board freely provide their time, wisdom and experience for the benefit of the development of young Information Systems professionals.

Objectives of the Advisory Board

The Board strives to meet the following objectives:

• to provide a means of building relationships between the Department and people and organisations involved with Information Systems, and
• to provide guidance and advice on the direction of the Department concerning the most important trends in technology, professional and management practice, and
• issues and trends in Information Systems as they apply to South Africa and beyond its borders.

Joining the Advisory Board

It is acknowledged that the Department has a history of excellence that is not in proportion to its relatively small size. It has a reputation for producing outstanding graduates in Information Systems who are ready to face the industry's challenges and who, within a short period, assume positions of responsibility with great success.

The Department has experienced significant growth in recent years and expects this growth to continue. The University has also acknowledged the Department's strength and importance and invested heavily in equipment and staff.

Much of the Department's success is attributable to its clear understanding of the need to maintain academic purity while keeping current with issues and trends relevant to the industry.

Members of the Board also associate themselves with a Department and University that is ready, able, and enthusiastic to meet the challenges facing the country in general and the IT industry in particular.

Benefits of Membership

Members of the Board are ideally poised to make a direct input into, and be part of, the formative education of future IT professionals. The Board facilitates greater interaction between member organisations and the University, the Department, the staff and the students. It also provides a stimulating forum for sharing ideas and bridging the gap between academe and industry.
