Content
The aim of this unit is to introduce students to all phases of the Software Engineering lifecycle, tools, and contemporary approaches for the development of computer systems. Students will study a set of core and contemporary concepts, principles, and development approaches of system analysis. Students will use industry standard techniques to capture and document functional and non-functional requirements using professional practices to model user goals, applications, and domains. Students will apply theory, knowledge, and industry standard practices to construct and evaluate prototype user interfaces, interaction models, implement solutions, thoroughly test, and evaluate user acceptance to ensure systems are reliable and maintainable.
