Sobering Factoids
  • Louisianas average wage is 20 below the
    national average
  • Louisianas per capita income as a of national
    per capita income has declined
  • Louisiana ranks 49th nationally in of the
    population above the poverty level
  • Louisiana ranks 45th nationally in of the
    population employed

Challenges to Economic Growth
  • Louisiana ranks 33rd in high tech businesses
  • Louisiana ranks 36th in IT employment
  • Louisiana ranks 42nd in IT wages
  • Louisiana ranks 42nd in tech-intensive business
    formations
  • No Louisiana SMSA ranked among top 30 in
    employment growth in highly innovative jobs

Louisianas economy is still largely based on
natural resources, geographic location, and cheap
labor

Vision 2020 Goals
an economy driven by a diverse and thriving set
of technology-intensive industries that utilize
Louisianas colleges and universities as
  • a source of well-educated graduates as
    employees,
  • a source of expertise for problem-solving, and
  • a source of technology for commercialization.

Education Theme
  • Provide the current generation of Louisiana
    students with the skills required to succeed in
    an increasingly information-rich and
    information-driven business environment

Ourso Success Stories
  • College produces nearly 26 of all undergraduate
    diplomas although accounts for only 15 of
    University enrollments
  • ISDS baccalaureate degrees awarded up 535 since
    1995
  • Over 200 different companies hired Ourso
    graduates in 2000-2001
  • Placement in top tier high-tech/IT companies
    nationwide at very competitive salaries

7
SAP University Alliance
  • R/3 integration throughout both undergraduate and
    graduate curricula
  • Numerous clinical projects and theses spawned
  • Impetus to expand partnerships (IBM, EDS, i2
    Technologies, Deliotte, Accenture,etc)

8
Impediments
  • College enrollments up 104 since 1995, but
  • ISDS enrollments up 390!
  • College SCH production per tenure-track faculty
    up 79 since 1995, but
  • ISDS SCH production up 180!
  • College is below faculty staffing accreditation
    guidelines

College has insufficient faculty, infrastructure,
and operating resources to meet student demand,
particularly for IT education
