A convergence of computer science (CS)/computer information systems (CIS) and management areas, in general, and, software development/software engineering and management, in particular, is quickly reshaping a profile of the software development industry. This motivated the Department of Computer Science and Information Systems at Bradley University (Peoria, IL) to propose, design, and develop innovative curriculum in CS-Management and CIS-Management areas. The developed state-of-the-art courseware in those areas is based on active utilization of software and CIS engineering concepts, methods, models, approaches, factors, and metrics in traditional (defined by Project Management Institute) project management processes and knowledge areas, particularly, 1) applications of software engineering methods and models to traditional five project management processes and nine knowledge areas; 2) utilization of software development life cycle stages in traditional project management life cycle; 3) applications of software/CIS specific estimation models and methodologies to traditional cost and time management; 4) utilization of specific software quality metrics and factors (ISO 9126) in traditional quality management; and 5) utilization of software-focused quality methodology (CMMI, DFSS) in software and CIS project management.
