Course Description:
This study covers all the fields of IT knowledge that an international IT specialist needs to be prepared for the future. Starting with a sound basis, we cover the state of the art in IT in later years: Project Management, Software Engineering (V model, RUP, XP, Agile, e-DSDM, SCRUM), Internet (web services, applications for mobile phones), programming (PHP, the .NET Framework, Object orientation), Database (data warehousing, data vaults, business intelligence), Architecture and many other subjects.
As well as this rather technical content we also cover many other aspects of IT such as enterprise analyses, Enterprise Resource Management, business intelligence, internationalisation, change management, security etc. There are many opportunities to specialise in the later stage of the programme; for example in Enterprise Resource Planning (SAP) and other English spoken Avans minors. Together with proven, sound content, we offer students an international approach to IT. Of course, most IT techniques at low level are universal and do not differ around the world. However the organisation of IT systems and networks varies greatly in different countries and regions. Developments in outsourcing, inshoring, nearshoring, network technology, use of internet, cybercrime, privacy, security etc. show interesting differences when we study different continents or countries. You will become an expert on aspects like these during your IT studies at Avans University of Applied Sciences.
