CIS 498-DL : Computer Information Systems Project

Description

This course provides experience in the development of large multi-tier information systems. The project will cover all aspects of the software development life cycle (i.e., analysis, design, implementation, testing, deployment), as well as project management and software configuration management. Students will use Java, an object request broker, and a database management system to develop a three-tier application using a use-case-driven, iterative, and incremental methodology.

The earliest students may take this course is in the quarter of their final class. Students must have completed CIS 413, CIS 414 or MSDS 430, and CIS 417 prior to taking this course; they may not take CIS 498 alongside any of these core courses.

Note: Registration for this course will be closed one week prior to the start of the term.
