Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to call attention to trends and curricula in the two areas of telecommunications and computer science. Telecommunications is in its infancy as an interdisciplinary academic subject which spans primarily the disciplines of electrical engineering, computer science and management. There are few telecommunications degree programs or identifiable specializations. Networks in the telecommunications industry are rapidly becoming very large distributed computing systems.In the computer industry, as well as the computer science research community, the dominant model for general purpose computing is also becoming distributed computing. However, in contrast to telecommunications, computer science is beginning to mature as an academic discipline also having interdisciplinary roots. Since many of the technologies which are critical to the successful development of the intelligent multimedia network of the future lie within the domain of computer science, there are opportunities for computer science to make a major impact on the emerging telecommunications field.
