Small Team Software Engineering Project

Developing software demand considerable technical skills. It have to be a good programmer and need understanding and knowledge in designing the architecture of major software. One must also have knowledge of third party software and the ability to integrate these with own software.

In this course, the student get to use several of the abilities acquired during previous studies. The course intends to tie together this flora of knowledge within the context of a group project where a major software will be developed. The course is structured to, as closely as possible, imitate a project that would normally be carried out out in the industry.

Software development means to apply systematic, disciplined and measurable methods for development, usage and maintenance of software. In this course the student practise methods that support this engineering working approach. Software development groups also imposes requirements on the organisation, management, teamwork and verbal as well as written communication with colleagues, customers and other interested parties. As part of this course, the student is given the opportunity to further develop knowledge within these softer pieces of the art to succeed with software development.

In total the student develops his abilities within software development to further prepare for working in the software developing industry.
