System Concept and General Systems Theory / Process Analysis / Principles of the Systems Approach / System Dynamics / System Development Process / Preliminary Review and Feasibility Analysis / System Proposal Preparation and Presentation / System Analysis / System Design / System Implementation / Transition to a New System
Objectives of the Course
The aim of this course is to teach students the systems approach and system development processes in a comprehensive manner. By understanding system and process management concepts in depth, students learn to develop holistic approaches to problems, analyze various industrial problems and produce applicable solutions in line with these analyses. In addition, by getting to know the operation of consumer-to-consumer systems and the development processes of such systems, they gain the skills to produce effective solutions to the complex problems they may encounter in today's business world. This course aims to prepare students to become successful professionals by developing their systems thinking and management skills.
