Welcome

Welcome to cs460: Software Engineering. Is it art, architecture, or bureaucracy? A bit of each, I guess. Mostly, it's a required, core cs class. Another hoop to jump through. For me, it's a bit more. Software Engineering encapsulates some of the most challenging aspects of "real" software design. While much of the course deals with formal methods for specification and project management, the real take-away is experience communicating about software design at multiple levels of abstraction.

The class syllabus is here.
