Requirements Analysis Research Group

Requirements Analysis (also known as Requirements Engineering) is an early phase in information systems development and is concerned with the discovery, elicitation and analysis of business needs and user requirements. The Requirements Analysis research group meets fortnightly on the Melbourne Burwood Campus to provide a forum for sharing resources, and for researchers, both staff and students, to try out new ideas in a supportive environment.

One of the consequences of an active programme of research is that it spins off new questions faster than we are able to solve them. The questions may form the basis of projects at all levels from PhD to Honours and even 3rd year undergraduate. Supervision is available, based at the Melbourne Burwood Campus. If you are interested in requirements analysis contact any member of the group.
