Systems Analysis and Integration CoursesWhen you specialize your Computer Information Systems degree in Systems Analysis and Integration, your coursework at DeVry University may include these career-enhancing courses:
- System Integration – This course integrates previous coursework in information systems analysis and design, database management, transaction processing, and application development. Through a business case involving several functional areas, students in this systems integration course examine relationships among information systems supporting each area, and explore organizational and technical issues that arise when business needs require separate systems to work together.
- Advanced Topics in Enterprise Analysis – Students in this course explore enterprise analysis tools and methodologies; capacity planning as related to information systems; enterprise architecture; and risk analysis and management.
- Organizational Process Analysis – Addressing analytical techniques used to model process flow, this systems analysis course explores process rules and process maturity in the context of characterizing workflow effectiveness and identifying opportunities for process improvement. Other topics include systematic approaches for comparing existing processes to process change solutions, documenting requirements for resource proposals, and change management competencies critical for successful implementation.
- Business Continuity – This course focuses on preparing for, reacting to, and recovering from events that threaten the security of information and information resources, or that threaten to disrupt critical business functions. Students examine various levels of threats to an organization's information assets and critical business functions, as well as develop policies, procedures, and plans to address them.
