About this subject

This subject covers how information systems are analysed and designed, from system concepts and the role of the systems analyst through the SDLC, feasibility study, requirements gathering, structured analysis tools, input/output and forms design, and file and database design. After it you will be able to plan and investigate a system, model requirements with DFDs, decision trees and ER diagrams, and produce logical and physical designs, forms and normalized database structures.
