Abstract
The traditional techniques and methods used by students during systems development at the College of Computer, Qassim University is leading to this study. It leads to identify problems that hinder the construction and development of information systems, and identify their causes. The most important stages of systems development are analysis and design, which represent a solid foundation to build strong systems that are free from errors. The motivation of this research is the existence of many problems that impede getting exact output after the development of systems by the university graduates within departments of computer. The research concentrates on discovering the problems during the development tasks. The required data were collected using a questionnaire method, which formulated and judged and distributed to the target population. The research results were analyzed by three statistic methods.
