Course Description: This course presents contemporary issues related to the field of software engineering. It deeply examines the software life cycle models, including phases of requirements specification, design, development, test, and maintain. Object-oriented design methods (UML) and practices, their application to the development of computer-based systems. Particular emphasis is on a team project in which a group of students implement a system from its specification.
Course Objectives: This Course introduces the concepts, tools and techniques of Software Engineering. It emphasizes the development of reliable and maintainable software via system requirements and specifications, software analysis and design methodologies including object-oriented design, implementation, integration and testing, software project management, life-cycle documentation. Students undertake a semester group mini-project as a major part of the course.
