The course discusses the theories, methods and tools of software engineering for developing large and complex software systems. The main contents are requirement specification, system modeling, architectural design, object-oriented analysis and design, verification and validation, and software testing. The Unified Modeling Language (UML) and its CASE tool are used to analyze and design the course project systems.

CILO-1: An ability to apply knowledge of computing and mathematics appropriate to the programme outcomes and to the discipline. CILO-2: An ability to apply knowledge of a computing specialisation, and domain knowledge appropriate for the computing specialisation to the abstraction and conceptualisation of computing models. CILO-3: An ability to analyse a problem, and identify and define the computing requirements appropriate to its solution. CILO-4: An ability to design, implement, and evaluate a computer-based system, process, component, or program to meet desired needs with appropriate consideration for public health and safety, social and environmental considerations. CILO-5: An ability to function effectively on teams to accomplish a common goal. CILO-6: An ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences. CILO-7: An ability to use current techniques, skills, and tools necessary for computing practice with an understanding of the limitations.
