Objectives and Contents
Objectives of the Course Unit The primary theme of the course is the use of systems analysis and design techniques to develop and document effective computer based information systems This course will provide students with an introduction to systems analysis and design and give a broad overview of the main techniques commonly used for carrying out the analysis and specification of the design for a computer system. This course provides students with an introduction to systems analysis and design and gives a broad overview of the main techniques commonly used for carrying out the analysis and specification of the design for a computer system. The course introduces the students to the nature of systems analysis and design as a problem-solving activity, describe the key elements of analysis and design, and explain the place of the analysis and design phases within the system development life cycle. The course will also introduce Software Development methodologies and lifecycles that utilise the principles and practices described here. These will be compared and contrasted with traditional approaches and techniques. This includes traditional and contemporary lifecycles through to Agile and more recent practices.
Contents of the Course Unit This is an introductory course in systems analysis and design for computer programmers and systems analysts. The course presents an overview of information systems and the systems development life cycle for the systems analyst. Course emphasis will then focus on tools and techniques that the programmer or analyst can use to document information systems. Classical and structured tools for describing data flow, data structure, process flow, file design, input and output design, and program specifications will be applied to documenting systems. Emphasis will also be placed on the integrated use of the classical and structured tools. The course will survey other important skills for the systems analyst such as fact-finding, communications, project management, and cost-benefit analysis.
Contribution of the Course Intending to Provide the Professional Education To give the students the knowledge of how to define and model software requirements in formal manner to solve real life problems.

EBS : Kıbrıs İlim Üniversitesi Eğitim Öğretim Bilgi Sistemi Kıbrıs İlim Üniversitesi AKTS Bilgi Paketi AKTS Bilgi Paketi ECTS Information Package Avrupa Kredi Transfer Sistemi (AKTS/ECTS), Avrupa Yükseköğretim Alanı (Bologna Süreci) hedeflerini destekleyen iş yükü ve öğrenme çıktılarına dayalı öğrenci/öğrenme merkezli öğretme ve öğrenme yaklaşımı çerçevesinde yükseköğretimde uluslarası saydamlığı arttırmak ve öğrenci hareketliliği ile öğrencilerin yurtdışında gördükleri öğrenimleri kendi ülkelerinde tanınmasını kolaylaştırmak amacıyla Avrupa Komisyonu tarafından 1989 yılında Erasmus Programı (günümüzde Yaşam Boyu Öğrenme Programı) kapsamında geliştirilmiş ve Avrupa ülkeleri tarafından yaygın olarak kabul görmüş bir kredi sistemidir. AKTS, aynı zamanda, yükseköğretim kurumlarına, öğretim programları ve ders içeriklerinin iş yüküne bağlı olarak kolay anlaşılabilir bir yapıda tasarlanması, uygulanması, gözden geçirilmesi, iyileştirilmesi ve bu sayede yükseköğretim programlarının kalitesinin geliştirilmesine ve kalite güvencesine önemli katkı sağlayan bir sistematik yaklaşım sunmaktadır. ETIS : İstanbul Aydın University Education & Training System Cyprus Science University ECTS Information Package ECTS Information Package European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System (ECTS) which was introduced by the European Council in 1989, within the framework of Erasmus, now part of the Life Long Learning Programme, is a student-centered credit system based on the student workload required to achieve the objectives of a programme specified in terms of learning outcomes and competences to be acquired. The implementation of ECTS has, since its introduction, has been found wide acceptance in the higher education systems across the European Countries and become a credit system and an indispensable tool supporting major aims of the Bologna Process and, thus, of European Higher Education Area as it makes teaching and learning in higher education more transparent across Europe and facilitates the recognition of all studies. The system allows for the transfer of learning experiences between different institutions, greater student mobility and more flexible routes to gain degrees. It also offers a systematic approach to curriculum design as well as quality assessment and improvement and, thus, quality assurance.
