Learning Outcomes
The student will be able to conduct a software design review using appropriate guidelines (process). Furthermore create and specify the software design for a medium-size software product using a software requirement specification, an accepted program design methodology (object oriented), and appropriate design notation. The student gains knowledge in object oriented systems development emphasizing requirements, analysis and design.
The professional skill of programming matures. The student learns basics of database programming and can apply them in many situations. Students make database application and the its documentation.
Student's Workload
6 x 27h = 162 h
Lectures and coaching: approx. 77h
Self studies - weekly assignments: approx. 40h
Self studies, reading theory and taking exams: approx. 25h

Prerequisites / Recommended Optional Courses
Basic knowledge in systems development, programming, databases and systems theory. Knowledge from the courses Programming and User Interfaces I + II and System Development I + II or otherwise earned corresponding knowledge.
Contents
Through theoretic studies of object oriented concepts, modelling techniques, methods etc and a practical project dealing with requirements, analysis and design, the student will get acquainted with the object oriented way of thinking and UML and gain knowledge about how to work in an object oriented systems development project. The course deals with issues like: Development process lifecycle; Systems development models and methods; Development tools; Standards ; System Requirements Analysis and Design; Process, tasks, and deliverables; Object Oriented Analysis; UML and CASE tools; Quality assurance: inspection and reviews and Transition from analysis to design.

Assessment Criteria
1: Student understands basic (around 40%) course concepts and is capable of developing simple applications.
3: Student understands a considerable portion (around 60%) of course concepts and is capable of developing applications with moderate number of functions.
5: Student understands most (around 90%) course concepts and is capable of developing applications with advanced features
