Abstract
There is a great focus on the value of Intellectual Capital-IC in relation to the long-term sustainability and success of
businesses. Considering Pakistan, better IC could provide the needed thrust to the growing software industry. The
industry has the potential to significantly contribute to the exports and economic development of Pakistan. The
software industry is a skill-intensive industry and formal Computer Science-CS education could play an important
role to build required skills. This paper explores the perceptions of IT professionals to better understand the skill
requirements of CS graduates and provides relative importance to these skills by means of the Delphi method. Further,
it also relates to the current situation on a skill set of fresh CS graduates and provides policy implications for
educational institutes to conform to industry requirements and align their educational initiatives accordingly.
