Requirements Engineering is a key discipline

It is IREB’s declared goal to foster further education in the field of Requirements Engineering.
Requirements Engineering as a first step in system development has a significant impact on the project success. It delineates the scope of a project and establishes the common basis for communication for all disciplines involved in the project. Requirements Engineering directly influences the project costs. The better the Requirements Engineering, the less expensive the errors that occur during development, thus decreasing overall costs.
