About the Course
Software engineering is the application of a systematic, disciplined, quantifiable approach to the development, operation, and maintenance of software. In this core lecture (9 CP), we expand on earlier exposure to software engineering (for instance, the software lab / SoPra from Saarland University's Bachelor's program) and do a detailed exploration of software engineering topics like:
- Software Quality Assurance
- Software Maintenance and Evolution
- Software Project Management
- and others...
- Requirements Engineering
- Software Specification
- Software Design and Architecture
- Advanced Programming Techniques
The course consists of two parts: A project part, in which you work in a team of 6–7 students with a customer to engineer a protoypical software solution to a problem, and a course part, which provides the necessary skills for completing the projects. Assuming that you already know about programming, the course will specifically focus on the early stages of software development (in particular requirements and design) as well as on the late stages (in particular quality assurance).
Lectures from May 8 on will take place in Campus E1.3 (Computer Science) HS2 again at 08:30.
This is a highly pratical course. 70% of your grade will be based on the project, the remaining 30% is based on the written exam. You need to pass the project as well as the written exam.
Registration
Please note, for organizational reasons, you have to sign up both in the
chair's course management system and in HISPOS.
Deadlines for the HISPOS registration will be posted in the HISPOS portal and announced by email.
