Study Goals


Students learn theoretical and practice-oriented knowledge of the most important notations and procedures for the modeling of business information systems (information modeling).



Students learn to create data-, process-, organization-, and object-oriented models (e.g., ERM, EPK, UML). They acquire the skills to analyze structural aspects of business management issues and to translate them into information models using modeling notations, as is necessary in requirements engineering for the development of new information systems or in the introduction of standard software systems.



With the help of reference frameworks for information architectures (ARIS), students learn how information models can sensibly be used in IT projects and how procedural models can be designed. The consideration of different levels of abstraction gives an insight into structures, strengths, and limits of notations and procedural models (meta-modeling).



Students are enabled to develop business management know-how and to apply it in the design of business information systems (reference modeling).
