Competence Centered Specialization in Web Engineering Topics in a Software Engineering Masters Degree Programme
نویسندگان
چکیده
Web applications and Web-based systems are becoming increasingly complex as a result of either customer requests or technology evolution which has eased other aspects of software engineering. Therefore, there is an increasing demand for highly skilled software engineers able to build and also advance the systems on the one hand as well as professionals who are able to evaluate their effectiveness on the other hand. With this idea in mind, the computer science department at Aalborg University is continuously working on improvements in its specialization in web engineering topics as well as on general competence based web engineering profiles offered also for those who specialize in other areas of software engineering. We describe the current state of the art and our experience with a web engineering curriculum within the software engineering masters degree programme. We also discuss an evolution of topics and problems students are working on while learning web engi-

متن کاملWeb Engineering as a Specialization of Software Engineering: Differences in Project Management Education
We present the motivation and our concept of introducing “Web Engineering” as a specialization of our “Software Engineering” curriculum. Our main focus lies on the differences in project management education for both areas as well as the necessary process models and tools. First we discuss the principal differences of software project management and web project management, focusing on the main ...
متن کاملA “Future-Proof” Postgraduate Software Engineering Programme: Maintainability Issues
We report on the development of a software engineering programme for Masters students. Maintainability of educational programmes is critical: there is a large initial investment in developing quality programmes and we must ensure that these programmes are “future proof”. Consequently, we followed a traditional software engineering lifecycle process to develop a programme that would meet the cur...
