Learning outcomes

This course bridges the gap between business-organizational methods and their IT-supported implementation. Students acquire a basic understanding of the use of business information- and communication systems in companies and thereby gain fundamental insights into the technologies and methods for designing and operating in-plant and cross-plant information systems. Students become familiar with a holistic approach to designing company information systems and the associated methodic basics for designing and modeling business processes by means of standard business software using the example of ERP- and workflow management systems. After completing this course, students will have the ability to describe and evaluate fundamental concepts and methods of decision-supporting systems with regard to data volume and fields of application.
