| Mainframe Talents of the Future - A GSE and IBM Project in Collaboration with the University of Linz |
|
 |
The Johannes Kepler University of Linz and IBM Austria along with GUIDE SHARE EUROPE are collaborating in the education and training of the IBM System z talents of the future. 35 students of the University were introduced to the Mainframe Architecture!
The students visited the IBM Lab in Böblingen, Germany, where they discussed the recent software and mainframe developments.
During the lecture "Linux on IBM System z" they got first insights into the system and the applications on it. Overviews of z/VM and z/OS were also part of the curriculum as well as the creation of a z/OS dataset and the configuration of a Linux network adaptor.

Finally GSE and IBM invited the students to a System z speed-dating at IBM Austria. Here the students discussed their learnings and future careers with business representatives. Also potential diploma work and internships were discussed in intensive one-on-one meetings.
Representatives of GSE, Raiffeisen Informatik, ILS Group and IBM answered the students´questions and presented their institutions.
This collaboration will be continued next semester with seminars, to which IBM System z customers are invited to contribute. Alongside the theoretical approach to mainframe, it is hands-on exercise which aims to deepen the students’ knowledge of System z. |
