Computer Information Systems Education in Modern Russia

Abstract

Abstract Business and economics education in Russia is flourishing, as many universities, technical schools, and private institutions seek to exploit the few curricula that are capable of producing substantial tuition income. This growth in business education is particularly strong within the microcomputer specialties. However, computer information systems education in Russia still has much of the same “look and feel” as its Soviet-era version, emphasizing theory and mathematical structures at the expense of practical problem solving.
