Abstract
This paper provides accounting information systems instructors with an in-depth look at utilizing
experiential learning field projects in a systems analysis and design course. Student groups were
required to develop and implement fully functional systems for a real world client. We discuss
project requirements, implementation issues, student feedback, and client feedback. Student and
client perceptions of the experiential projects are favorable.
