END 423 - System Development Life Cycle

The aim of this course is to introduce students to the importance of the systems approach in the analysis and development of technology-based and/or engineering systems and to define the system analysis and design steps. The course aims to first teach the methods and methods required for system analysis and design theoretically, and then to help students reinforce their theoretical learning with practice by having them do project-based studies.
​
