SOFTWARE ENGINEERING

Course Description

The course will introduce basics and fundamentals of Software Engineering, as well as will introduce principles, methods, techniques, and tools for multi-person construction of multi-version software systems. Starting from the main objective which is the understanding the importance of Software Engineering, following will be covered in detail; introducing techniques for the development of software within an engineering project perspective, creating awareness for the quality and the severity of software aspects, effective Communication, Requirements Engineering, Project Management Fundamentals, Software Testing Principles, Software Architecture Concepts, CASE (Computer-aided software engineering) Tools for Configuration Managements and Unit Testing, introduction to Methodologies and Quality Systems. Students complete a course project where they work on a selected software design including all the analysis and design steps.
