Wireless Communications and Networking Course: Does It Belong in the I. S. Curricula?

A course in wireless communications and networking should be considered to be a part of the I.S. and I.T. academic curricula. The purpose of this paper is to identify the relevance of wireless communications and examine the topics and the challenges associated with teaching wireless communications courses.
