CSE436 is a course on software engineering. While it is primarily a workshop,
students are exposed to fundamental software engineering approaches, tools, and disciplines
in lecture.
This is a capstone course, meaning that you will draw from all your experiences
in other courses to complete the work in this course. As such, this course involves
a substantial amount of
- Design skills, to arrive at a clean, effective design for your project.
- Coding skills, to implement your project in the best way possible.
- Programming language skills, as all projects will involve Java, C++, and JNI to
connect the pieces.
- Collaboration skills, as the course involves real-world projects
performed in teams, scaled to fit in the timeframe of the semester.
- Debugging skills, to find and fix bugs.
- Testing skills, to search for the presence of bugs.
- Theory skills, to prove the absence of bugs.
- Writing skills, to develop clean, effective prose describing requirements and
project activities.
- Presentation skills, to communicate the important aspects of your project at
different levels (management, customer, team)
It is likely that coming into this class, you are strong at some of the aspects listed
above and weak at others. The goal is for you to help others where you have strength,
and to strengthen yourself in areas where you are weak, by interaction with the instructor
and the other students.
