Course objectives
The aim of this subject is:
- to deepen knowledge of principles of designing Information Systems (IS)
- to deepen knowledge of methodologies and techniques used in designing of IS including managing projects of IS
- to learn english terminology in order to be able to work in an international team.
After passing this course will the students be able
- to explain the principles of systems analysis and systems design
- to describe principles of structured and object-oriented methodologies
- to explain different methodologies used in the process of designing of IS (e.g. life cycle methodology, prototyping and others)
- to describe and explain the principles of managing projects of IS
- to understand the problem of linking system projects to the business plan.
