Abstract

This study investigates the number and nature of e‐Government programs available in different types of educational institutes. An analysis of 57 programs provides evidence regarding the geographical distribution of the programs, the degree level of each program, the e-Government topics and courses, the aims and learning goals, the knowledge areas, the institution type and department hosting the program etc. This study initiates a general dialogue on the nature, content, objectives, and delivery of e-Government education. An exploratory review and content analysis of the 57 e-Government programs, representing different type of institutes worldwide, reveals that they offer courses emphasizing a broad range of skills, objectives, perspectives, teaching methods, and cognitive content. However, many common structures, topics, and courses have emerged. The issues addressed in this study should help educational institutes better prepare the e-Governance programs for the future challenges, especially concerning the progress of the disruptive and emerging technologies in the public sector.
