Abstract

The paper reports on the structure of a two-semester workshop accompanied by lectures on software engineering (SE) methods and on major issues in project management (PM). The course is taught to 300 students per year as part of a master degree curriculum in computer science (CS). During the last ten years the technical content of the course as well as structure, style and schedule have been reviewed regularly in order to achieve a high degree of practical effectiveness. Form and contents of the software engineering labs are described. Teaching project management in parallel with experiencing PM in teamwork is presented as a major factor in tailoring SE education towards practical needs. The authors' experiences in SE consulting and project management in industrial practice have gradually tuned the course design towards the following priorities. C1: Caution with 'latest' methods. C2: Caution with brand new tools. F1: Focus on (experiencing) roles in SE teams. F2: Focus on work organization on team level. F3: Focus on work organization of the team members on the individual level. F4: Focus on rigid selection of team supervisors.

针对工业需求的大学级别的软件工程和项目管理课程:经过十年经验的一些可靠结果

这篇论文报告了一个两个学期的研讨会的结构，伴随着关于软件工程(SE)方法和项目管理(PM)中的主要问题的讲座。作为计算机科学(CS)硕士学位课程的一部分，该课程每年面向300名学生授课。在过去的十年中，课程的技术内容以及结构，风格和时间表都进行了定期审查，以达到高度的实际效果。介绍了软件工程实验室的形式和内容。在团队合作中，项目管理教学与项目管理经验并行，这是根据实际需求定制SE教育的主要因素。作者在SE咨询和工业实践中的项目管理方面的经验逐渐将课程设计转向以下优先事项。C1:小心使用“最新”方法。使用全新的工具要小心。F1:专注于(体验)SE团队中的角色。F2:注重团队层面的工作组织。F3:在个人层面关注团队成员的工作组织。F4:注重严格选拔团队主管。
