What is Systems Analysis and Design (SAD)? •Systems Analysis: understanding and specifying in detail what an information system should do •System Design: specifying in detail how the parts of an information system should be implemented Why is it important? • Success of information systems depends on good SAD • Widely used in industry - proven techniques • Part of career growth in IT - lots of interesting and well-paying jobs! • Increasing demand for systems analysis skills
Course Objectives • To provide you with new ways of looking at information in the world in order to solve business problems • To introduce you to concepts and methods of SAD • To describe the systems development life cycle (SDLC) • To teach you effective methods for gathering essential information during system analysis • To teach you approaches to documenting and modeling of gathered information • To teach you effective methods for designing systems to solve problems effectively using technology
Topics covered • System’s concept • The system development environment • Types of information systems • Rapid application development • Role of the systems analyst • Managing an IT project • Initiating and planning a systems development project • Determining systems requirements • Process modeling • Logic modeling • Project documentation • Understanding the elements of systems design • Designing the user interface • Designing system interfaces, controls and security
