Information Systems Development Project

Catalog description

Students work in project teams to perform the entire project development life cycle, including analysis, design, and implementation of a prototype CIS business application. Students draw upon all previous business course experiences in selecting a target application; determining application requirements; performing feasibility, data, process, and constraint analysis; integrating hardware/software into a design specification; and performing the coding, testing, and documentation to implement the application. Project management techniques, including CASE technology, are required of all teams. Relevant ethical issues are discussed during all phases of the process.
