This document outlines the syllabus for the MIS 321 Systems Analysis and Design course. It provides details about the instructor, class times and office hours. It describes the course content which covers the systems development life cycle and various analysis and design techniques. Assessment includes a midterm, project, lab work and final exam. The project involves analyzing and designing a real-world system in groups over two semesters.

analyzing information requirements.
Systems design; output, input, file,
database, user interface, data-entry
procedures and software design. Systems
development; project management, costs,
programming, testing and documentation.
Systems implementation and evaluation.
5. Delivery Method: Instructor led lectures.

Kendall
6. Grading: Normal distribution curve fitting.
Percent
Midterm 20
Laboratory 20
Project 30
Final 30
7. Midterm Exam: Midterm exam will be open
book/open notes, written exam. Make-up
exam will be given only for official excuses.
Project: Students are expected to form
groups to analyze and design a real-world
situation. A presentation and a report is
expected at the end of this exercise. Project
will be a 3-4 student group project. There
will be no make-up for the project.
8. Final: Final exam will be open book/open
notes, written exam. Make-up exam will be
given only for the excuses accepted by
registration office. Students are required to
get an average grade of 50 (midterm,
project and laboratory grades up to final) in
order to enter the final exam.
Academic Dishonesty: Cheating is
absolutely subject to a disciplinary action
and a null grade.
9. Course Content and Objectives (Shelly,
Cashman and Rosenblatt):
Introduction to Systems Analysis and Design
Systems Planning
Requirements Modeling
Data and Process Modeling
Transition to Systems Design
Data Design
10. PROJECT DEFINITION
Project will be 2 semester project which will
include steps of planning, design,
implementation, testing and documentation.
It will be an Internet based application.
The database will be implemented in MIS 335
course and teams will be the same as much as
possible.
Possible projects: e-sales, registration, hospital,
game, education, library, etc.
11. PROJECT DEFINITION
When the project is e-sales it may seem to be a
huge project. But every project can be sized
while designing:
You may assume that items enter to the store with
another program and they are already in database.
Your aim will be to sell these items to customers.
You may assume that payment is not online.
12. PROJECT PLAN
Phase I (5.10.2012)
* Submit your project title together with the
names of the team members.
* Project title and teams should be confirmed by
MIS 335 instructor.
13. Next semester
List all of the necessary outputs and design
them
List all of the necessary inputs and design the
forms
Give the menu hierarchy of your system
Prepare the relational database design
Describe installation and evaluation process
Describe support activities
