IT Project Lifecycle: Requirements and Design

Catalog description

Students undertake all phases of information technology (IT) systems design and implementation, conducting a major IT project, working singly or in collaboration with other students under the direction of a faculty or external project sponsor. With instructor permission, students may elect to pursue a co-curricular activity. All elements of the IT project lifecycle are considered including analysis, requirements, design, user and feasibility studies, ethical considerations, implementation, testing, documentation, and system rollout. In CIT 457 , students work through pre-implementation to produce a detailed requirements and design proposal (and potentially prototype systems). In CIT 458 , students implement, test, and rollout their systems. EL. SC. Prerequisites: Senior Standing.
