Entry requirements

Note: Admission requirements for non-programme students usually also include admission requirements for the programme and threshold requirements for progression within the programme, or corresponding.

Prerequisites

Software engineering theory and practice. Practical programming. Basic courses in mathematics.

Intended learning outcomes

Passed students shall be able to:

  • explain and exemplify advanced concepts of Software Engineering
  • collect, analyse and discuss empirical data found in published articles or own investiation or experiment
  • write a summary of a software engineering subject

 

Course content

 

  • Guide to the Software Engineering Body of Knowledge.
  • Experimentation in Software Engineering.
  • Domain-specific languages.
  • Specification and verification of software-intensive systems.
  • System anatomies.

 

Teaching and working methods

Relevant concepts are taught and discussed in a seminar series. In groups of 1-4 students collect, analyze and present empirical material in software engineering. The material comes either from published papers or an own investigation or experiment.

Each student selects a subject together with the examiner and writes a self-contained summary in English. Advice will be given both individually and in some seminars.

Regulations (apply to LiU in its entirety)

The university is a government agency whose operations are regulated by legislation and ordinances, which include the Higher Education Act and the Higher Education Ordinance. In addition to legislation and ordinances, operations are subject to several policy documents. The Linköping University rule book collects currently valid decisions of a regulatory nature taken by the university board, the vice-chancellor and faculty/department boards.

LiU’s rule book for education at first-cycle and second-cycle levels is available at http://styrdokument.liu.se/Regelsamling/Innehall/Utbildning_pa_grund-_och_avancerad_niva.
