Description

This course aims to provide the student with an understanding of the content of information systems, the types of systems and their position in society and at an organisational level. It emphasises the growing interdependence between business strategy, rules and procedures on the one hand and information systems software, hardware, data and telecommunications on the other. This course addresses the importance of data and the structuring of data and seeks to provide an introduction to the systems development life cycle, design concepts, data analysis and models and data communications. In addition, this course presents the student with an overview of information systems in order to enable each student to fully understand the concepts involved in general systems development.
