Abstract: Systems analysis and design (SAD) classes are required in both Information Systems and Accounting programs, but these audiences have very different needs for these skills. This article will review the requirements for SAD within each of these disciplines and compare and contrast the different requirements for teaching systems analysis and design to both audiences. These observations are based on both literature on the subject, and the authors personal experience with teaching SAD to these two audiences.
