Systems analysts are very important members of a systems project team because of their system analysis and system modelling skills. It is an important technique to understand and develop knowledge of human problems, define them in goals and then organize knowledge and understanding to resolve them in a systemic way. A system analyst need to develop skills like – an understanding of an organization, communicating with people, analysing a situation or problem, creating a feasible solution from both technical and business point of view, and working on solution in a team oriented environment using systems models and IT.
Business understanding is very necessary to pin point the process of systems modelling and systems models. The knowledge and understanding, of an organization and its work, is important to do thorough systems analysis. A genuine interest in business is necessary to develop understanding. The business knowledge will determine that which technical tools, the team should use in order to get the result.
This has told me what I need in order to become a good systems analyst. I plan to work on my skills, by studying the different case studies in order to understand different aspects of business; increasing my communication skills in order to interact with people and learn and understand their perspective; by learning to listen and observe; by increasing my technical skills; keeping in touch with ever growing progress in different fields. In order to create a perfect system all the business and technical knowledge, which can be acquired, is less. It’s necessary to keep learning from experiences.
With the help this course, I hope to get those learning experiences in order to enhance my knowledge and skills as a systems analyst. This course is very important for me. It needs to help me broaden my practical, analytical, communicative and organizational knowledge. There should be trips to organizations to help gain the hand on experience and seminars from experts to learn about their perspectives and experiences. A wide range of sources should be provided to cover all the areas in technology. Special communication classes, if possible, should be arranged. So far I haven’t had any practical experience through this course. The study contents are really good but we need some place to apply those contents.
The faculty and over all help from organization has been a nice experience. So, over all I am satisfied up to a certain level but there is so many improvements could be done in the area of studies.
