The Master of Science in Information Science degree program at the Penn State Great Valley School of Graduate Professional Studies attracts students from a diverse set of backgrounds. For those candidates with non-technical degrees, a need has been identified for a transitional course, namely a software studio which goes beyond traditional professional development offerings. This paper discusses the design of and the experience gained in conducting the software studio. The software studio is designed to enable a student with a non-technical background to make the transition to the study of information science at a graduate level. Since its introduction in the spring of 1999, this course has been offered during each spring, summer, and fall semester. As this is a relatively new course, it is undergoing continuous incremental improvements based on inclass experience, student feedback and changes in the industry.
