DETAILED DESCRIPTION AND REQUIREMENTS
PART A: ESSAY QUESTION
What is the difference between systems analysis and systems design? First discuss the aims of each of them (systems analysis and systems design) and how these aims are achieved. Then discuss how they are related to each other and how they are different from each other.
Please answer the questions above, using overall 200-300 words. Being able to answer questions precisely is part of the interpersonal and communication skills required of systems analysts; therefore, meeting the word limit is important.
Make sure that your answer is written in your own words rather than being copied either from the textbook or from another source! Cite the sources you use in your answer, and provide references. There should be at least two references in your answer, and at least one of them should not be the textbook. If you are not sure how to list and cite sources, please read "How to Cite Correctly" in the Important Resources block on the right side of the course home page.
