Description

A course that presents the principles of the software engineering discipline and practices students in the application of software engineering techniques. The theoretical component of the course covers current issues in software development and acquisition, process models, software management issues, computer-aided software engineering (CASE), software cost and schedule estimation, software development standards, software documentation, capability maturity models, metrics, quality assurance, configuration management, validation and verification, and test and evaluation. These principles are then reinforced through the conduct of a number of laboratory exercises to practice good software design and development.
