About the course.

The course aims to give the student knowledge of how to create data models in order to implement digitalisation strategies for discovering, analysing, representing and communicating data requirements, and of how different data models and their components work in interaction with requirement owners and model users. The goal is for the student, through theory and practical exercises, to develop specialised knowledge of data modelling as a means of analysing and defining data requirements that support business processes within the organisation's information systems. The student will also learn to collaborate with the requirement owners/model users when designing the model. The student will develop skills in producing conceptual, logical and physical data models based on the organisation's data requirements. This includes skills in communicating with the requirement owners/model users to ensure that the data requirements can be met and that the model corresponds to the organisation's purpose.
