Software Engineering

This document outlines a software engineering course for third year students. The course is divided into 8 units covering topics such as software process models, project management, requirements, design, testing, and metrics. Students will learn about software development concepts, practices, and the software life cycle. The course aims to provide a comprehensive introduction to software engineering and the activities required to develop software systems. Students will be encouraged to complete a case study applying concepts from the units. The course will be assessed through internal tests, a final exam, and case study work.
