Purpose
The purpose of the individual system analysis and design project is to demonstrate student’s ability to apply the knowledge learned in this course to a real-world project.
Topic: Internet Shopping Site for Music
Project Deliverables
The project requires students to perform three phases: (a) requirements analysis, (b) system and database design, and (c) a project plan. Note that in the phase 3, students are required to use the MS Project software for their project schedule.
The deadline for the Individual Project can be found in the schedule section of the class syllabus.
The following layout format covering a title page and all three phases is recommended for the project.

B. Data design
Develop a plan for data organization, storage, updating, and retrieval.
Phase 3: Project plan
A list of tasks or activities needed for implementing the proposed system
