INFT 233 — Systems Analysis & Design
An introduction to systems analysis and design concepts and tools, including the basic phases of the System Development Life Cycle: system analysis, system design and system implementation and maintenance. Students will survey existing tools in the field that aid personnel in industry. The course will include a capstone project. This project will cover all phases of the system development life cycle from requirements definition through coding, testing and implementation. Whenever possible the project will emerge from work environments studied in the first year. These environments will be analyzed for their potential to be served by additional information technology in the form of custom applications, software packages, enhanced use of the Internet or improved communication achieved via networking.
