Learning outcomes of the course unit

  • Students will know fundamentals of essential stages in information system development at a level, which is further evolved in specialized subjects.
  • They will be 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.

Prerequisites

  • Basic knowledge of software engineering. 
  • Knowledge of the paradigms of and practical experience with object-oriented programming.

Co-requisites

Not applicable.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods

Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes

  • Mid-term written examination - 15 point
  • Evaluated project with the defense (four partial submissions) - 34 points
  • Final written examination - 51 points; The minimal number of points which can be obtained from the final exam is 20. Otherwise, no points will be assigned to the student.
