Abstract

Decision Support Systems arrived in academic administration in the 1980s with a great deal of enthusiasm and controversy. What are they? What can they do for you? This issue introduces the reader to Decision Support Systems (DSS) and discusses how DSS might help academic administrators make decisions. It includes (1) a description or definition of DSS, (2) a brief historical development sketch, (3) an illustration of an application of DSS in academic administration, and (4) references on the subject of DSS.
