The Australian megafauna
Purpose – The paper's aim is to present a personal viewpoint of the state of the information systems discipline in Australian universities and hence provoke useful discussion in academia and industry. Design/methodology/approach – Informal interviews with Australian information systems academics, were carried out, along with inspection of university web sites and conference mailing lists, using biology as a reference discipline. Findings – It would seem that the information systems discipline in Australian universities is close to collapse unless action is taken. Research limitations/implications – The paper represents a personal viewpoint, the methods employed are such that the paper is indicative rather than definitive. Practical implications – The paper is relevant to information systems academics, university managers, government and employers in Australia. It provides a useful referent for the consideration of education and immigration policies. Originality/value – It has been some time since a paper considering the state of the art of the information systems has been published. No published paper has taken this perspective.
