After successful completion of the course, students are able to understand the purpose of an enterprise architecture and the corresponding enterprise-wide system development:
Important information: The 194.152 Enterprise & Process Engineering (6ec) course is a follow up to the courses 194.043 Enterprise Architecture (3ec) and 188.924 Workflow Modeling & Process Management (3ec). The latter two courses will not be offered anymore. However, as a transitional measure, students who already passed one of these two latter courses sucessfully only need to (1) register for the 194.152 Enterprise & Process Engineering (6ec) course, (2) report to the lecturers which part they plan to attend, and (3) participate in the selected part. In these cases, the grade received for 194.152 will be the average of the grade received for the course that was already attended in the past (188.924 or 194.043) and the newly attended part of 194.152.
During the two parts of this course (Enterprise Architecture (EA) and Business Process Management (BPM)), the theoretical concepts will be presented as lectures. Each lecture is dedicated on the different topics covered for both parts. During each lecture the lecturers will provide real-life examples to ensure the students understand the respective topic. During each lecture the lecturers will provide small tasks/exercises and encourage students to solve these exercises either individually or together with the other students. The solutions will be consequently discussed by all, the lecturer and the students.
Students that have completed the 194.043 Enterprise Architecture (3ec) course in the past can skip the Enterprise Architecture (EA) course sessions, but they should take part of the Business Process Management (BPM) part of this course.
Students that have completed the 188.924 Workflow Modeling & Process Management (3ec) in the past can skip the Business Process Management (BPM) course sessions, but they should take part of the Enterprise Architecture (EA) part of this course.
During the first session on the 2nd of October we will present the course organization, and teams for the group works will be formed. We strongly advice all students to be present on that day.

There are three examination modules:
1. Students will solve 3-4 exercises for each part of this lecture (EA and BPM). The exercises will be quizzes provided on TUWeL. These amount to 20% of the overall grade.
2. Students will work in a team of 4 on a group work for both of the pats EA and BPM. Each team has to submit a group report after 4-5 weeks. The group work amount to 40% of the overall grade.
3. Students will take part of a written exam, uring the last session of each lecture part. The exam will be 1h, and will include questions on all topics covered during the lecture. The exam amounts to 40% of the overall grade.
Grading scheme for this course is:
>= 90% ... Excellent (1) >= 80% ... Good (2) >= 70% ... Satisfacory (3) >= 60% ... Sufficient (4) < 60% ... Fail
Basic knowledge in object-oriented modeling and data modeling. These prerequesites are thought in the following modules of our bachelor curriculum: WIN/MOD - Modelierung (Modelling) and WIN(DBS Datenbanksysteme (Database Systems)
