Course overview
Requirements engineering is like baking a cake for someone you don’t know: without being aware of the birthday person’s preferences, you might end up with a cake that’s the wrong flavour, density, or sweetness. Without requirements engineering, you might misunderstand what the customer or user wants – or even overlook important details that could impact the success of a product or system.
By using requirements engineering, you have a clear understanding of what needs to be done, and can develop a product or system that meets the needs of the customer or user. This disciplined and rigorous approach uses a set of practices and processes to help a business analyst identify requirements to develop business and IT solutions which meet the needs of the business and its stakeholders – these highly sought-after business requirement skills are an important part of any business and will help you succeed in your business analysis career.

Subjects
Requirements Engineering is the process of identifying, documenting, as well as managing the needs & constraints of stakeholders for a system/product. It involves gathering and analysing information from stakeholders, and then using that information to create a set of requirements that will guide the development of the system or product.
Requirements can be organised into a hierarchy, with high-level requirements at the top and more specific requirements at the bottom. This hierarchy helps to ensure that all requirements are met and that the system or product is aligned with the needs of the stakeholders.
Stakeholders are individuals or groups that have an interest in the system or product being developed. They may include customers, users, developers, and management. It is important to involve stakeholders in the requirements process to ensure that their needs are understood and met.
Requirements elicitation is the process of gathering information from stakeholders to identify their needs and constraints. It can include techniques such as interviews, workshops, and surveys.
Models can be used to represent the requirements and to help understand the system or product being developed. These models can include use cases, process models, and data models.
Requirements documentation is the process of documenting the requirements in a clear and concise manner. It includes creating a requirements document that describes the needs and constraints of the stakeholders.
Requirements analysis is the process of examining the requirements to ensure that they are complete, consistent, and feasible. It includes identifying any conflicts or inconsistencies in the requirements and resolving them.
Requirements validation is the process of ensuring that the requirements meet the needs of the stakeholders. It includes testing the requirements to ensure that they are accurate and complete.
Requirements management is the process of managing the requirements throughout the development process. It includes tracking the requirements, monitoring changes, and ensuring that the requirements are met. This includes ensuring that the requirements are aligned with the overall goals and objectives of the project and that they are being met throughout the project life cycle.
