Information Systems Engineering: What Is It?

This paper discusses the meaning of the term “information systems engineering”. It does so by giving an account of five notions embedded in the term, hence arriving to a concluding definition and a suggestion of the broad areas of knowledge needed by ISE experts. The paper ends with a brief discussion of new demands on ISE education caused by the fact that information systems are increasingly becoming multi-media and web based and that the look and feel aspect of the business process as reflected in process-oriented information systems is becoming ever more important.
