About the course

Course content

Each group is given a task from a client that is to be carried out as a project. All phases of IS/IT projects are to be covered: Preliminary studies, requirements specification, design, implementation, and evaluation. The emphasis is on the early phases. It is important that the groups work in close collaboration with the client. The groups will hand in a project report and give a final presentation and demonstration of a runnable system to the client and the censor. The following days are obligatory: the starting day of the course which is on Tuesday in the semester's second week, the two days course in group dynamics given early in the semester, and the weekly supervision. A failure to meet on these days may prevent the student from completing the course.

Learning outcome

To give the students practical experience in executing all phases of large IS/IT projects.

Learning methods and activities

The tasks are carried out as group work with groups of 5-7 persons. Each group has a client and internal supervisors. The groups have obligatory meetings with the supervisors every week. The course includes a series of lectures.
