ABSTRACT
This paper presents a software system for investment efficiency that serves as an actual example to students learning financial development. Companies need computer specialists who can understand and develop applications in the financial field to provide better tools for the needs of the financial department. Engineering students have difficulty grasping financial concepts and need good examples to supplement their learning. The main aim is to enhance students’ capability to think in design, choose appropriate visualizing tools, and represent data correctly and efficiently. The most challenging part is applying formulas from an unfamiliar area and calculating and showing data precisely. The development of such a software system and its integration into the curriculum of engineering students studying financial system development is explained. It was possible to combine different capital budgeting methods that simplified the application design during the development. A survey among students was conducted on the application’s value, which resulted in positive feedback. The software system has positively influenced the students’ opinion about their own skills and confidence.
