platforms for teaching some IT concepts are strong.Trends in IT towards much more diverse computing platforms that are integrated into the realworld indicate that IT students should pay more attention to hardware systems.Hardware adds a significant dimension to the learning experience of IT students. Commonlyavailable systems provide the necessary elements for introducing hardware into IT courses. Thebenefits to students are clear. The framework we have developed leading to the use of widelystandardized systems has been demonstrated to be effective in multiple classes and will becontinued and extended.Bibliography1. B. M.

In programs where industry partners sponsored internships, studentshad a chance to develop skills required to find jobs, academics developed closer links to theindustry, and employers had a chance to develop and retain professionals in their businesses.

The deliverable is not a theoretical design but, rather, a working prototype of a real-world need that meets the requirements of an actively collaborating client. Students completetheir projects and present their work to a panel of academic and industry professionals in thisdiscipline. Grading is H (Honors), S (Satisfactory), or U (Unsatisfactory) only. Objectives of thiscourse are to: Demonstrate the importance of Project Planning and Project Management Do in-depth
