Course Objective and Content

Course Objectives: Introduction to Software Engineering course is organized to serve the basic foundations of a general engineering discipline to problem solving for computer based applications rather than to focus on specific methods, techniques, and methodologies. Students should learn general lifecycle of a software project by understanding project phases: analysis, design, implementation, testing. They will alsoo understand the analysis, design techniques, project scheduling. software testing activities, software documentation details, quality assurance, and other Software Engineering issues.
Course Content: • Introduction
• The Product
• The Process
• Software Process Models
• Project Management Concepts
• Software Process and Project Metrics
• Project Planning
• Risk Analysis and Management
• Software Quality Assurance
• Software Configuration Management
• Software Analysis
• Software Design
• Architectural Design
• User Interface Design
• Component Level Design
• Software Testing
