Software Engineering

Software engineering is the discipline concerned with the application of theory, knowledge, and practice for effectively and efficiently building software systems that satisfy the requirements of users and customers. Software engineering can be applied to small, medium, and large-scale systems. It encompasses all phases of the life cycle of a software system. The life cycle includes requirements analysis and specification, design, construction, testing, deployment, and operation and maintenance. Software engineering employs engineering methods, processes, techniques, and measurements. It benefits from the use of tools for managing software development, analyzing, and modeling software artifacts, assessing and controlling quality, and ensuring a disciplined, controlled approach to software evolution and reuse. The elements of software engineering applied to the development of software in any computing application domain where professionalism, quality, schedule, and cost are important in producing a software system.

Introduce basic knowledge for software design, verification and validation, documentation, project management and develop skills to design software systems.
