IK2216 Kommunikationssystem och affärsmodeller 2,5 hp

The objective of the course IK2216 is to offer students taking the course II2201 "New Business Models"  an opportunity to study real life examples of new business models and value chains for products and services based on advanced emerging information and communication technologies, as a  complement to the theoretical frameworks provided in II2201.

Learning Objectives

The overall objective of the course is to enable the student to acquire the skills to identify and analyse an innovative business model in the ICT area and to  propose a possible business case based on it.

At the end of the course the student is expected to present a realistic, not necessarily original, business idea based on innovative use of ICT, an analysis of an associated business model and a  proposal for a possible CSD project developing a business case.

(CSD = Communication Systems Design)

In prolongation, the theories from this course will be adopted to technological areas of ICT. Therefore it is expected that participants in this course have some basic education, equivalent to a bachelor degree, in an ICT subject.

Beyond this requirement the student must also meet the following skills/knowledge:

• Programming
• Data communication, Computer Networks and Internetworking
• Computer systems, including Computer Hardware Basics and operating Systems
