Course description

In this course you will learn how to analyze business problems from a design perspective and how to develop innovative solutions. We will use a semester project for a real client as the vehicle for “learning by doing.” Assuming the role of Business Analyst, you will learn various techniques including stakeholder analysis, business rules analysis, and data and process modeling. You will learn to apply different techniques to elicit requirements which will define the problem and what a solution should look like. Finally, you will work in teams to analyze an actual problem, prototype a solution using Justinmind software and present your proposed solution to the client.
