Course objectives
The first chapters focus on the basic concept of systems science, the understanding of which is a prerequisite for mastering the follow-up study. The course then deals in detail with the issues of theoretical application of systems approach to the modelling of a company, the analysis of the level of organization and the restructuring of a corporate information system. The course then focuses on the issues arising from practical applications of systems engineering and provides characteristics of basic approaches to designing information systems. The task of the course is to support and develop students skills in the field of information systems and to enhance their managerial skills resulting into effective cooperation between them as managers and software engineers when designing and implementing improvements in information systems.
