This course teaches students the basic skills for the development of digital tourism applications, specifically during the phases of analysis, design, implementation, and validation. It also covers the fundamentals of software life cycles, design quality, software development processes, and project management while also focusing on the interaction between IT applications and organizational processes and related standards and tools.

Upon successful completion of the course, the student will be able to:

• recognize and understand the organizational, administrative, and technological framework around Tourism technologies and services.
• perform market analysis, as well as specifications and requirements analysis.
• distinguishes between design and development models and the different implementation phases in IT projects for Tourism.
• become familiar with the existing principles and practices governing the design of user interfaces.
• adopt rules, good practices, and international trends in the design of user navigation and browsing and the personalization of content and services.
• develop applications/systems based on human-centered/user-centered approaches.
• use market, performance, and targeting metrics and indicators.
• design interactive systems and immersive applications for Tourism.
• analyze, process, and visualize information from applications for smart cities/smart tourism.
• implement cultural tourism applications and services.
