In collaboration with Apple and the University of San Francisco, Professor of Information Systems Leigh Jin discussed how the Lam Family College of Business integrates app development into business education.
"The combination of a powerful language and a visual, intelligent IDE makes iOS app development an approachable and engaging curriculum to introduce business students to the exciting world of software development, and to take advantage of the broader app economy," Jin says.
iOS app development has been implemented in both undergraduate and MBA courses, as well as an annual Appathon Competition and a student-run Xcode club, which focuses on preparing students for Apple's app development certification.
