Subject specific learning outcomes and competences
Students will know fundamentals of essential stages in information system development at a level, which is further evolved in specialized subjects. They are able to develop suitable models during information system requirements analysis and design, mainly in the UML language.
Students will learn how to analyze a design solution of a given problem in a small team. They learn to present and defend both partial and final results of the project.
Learning objectives
The goal of the subject is to give students knowledge of methods and tools used in information system development and to learn them to apply these methods and tools.
Prerequisite knowledge and skills
