For further information please call the ISDS Department Office at 559.278.2823 

  • Student Testimonies:
    "It was the ultimate experience to be able to learn about the various software providers and developers that were at the exhibits. We do not get many, if any, chances to be able to meet these software giants.""Oracle Open World is a very valuable experience for anyone going into our industry. It gives us an opportunity to talk face-to-face with vendors and high profile folks from major companies in our field. It also exposes us to many technologies we may have never seen before. It is a very good chance for us to get exposed to what our industry is all about."
  • "This trip opened up my eyes and mind to the cutting edge of my field. It allowed me to see where the future of IS is and where I will be joining it."
  • "It was fascinating to learn about and be around a real world setting. This experience has definitely broadened my view of the IS field."

  • "The trip showed me the increasing importance of information security. It also gave me some insight into the things that people and companies do in the industry."
