Course content

Each group is given a task from a client that is to be carried out as a project. All phases of a development project are to be covered: Preliminary studies, requirements specification, design, implementation, and evaluation. The emphasis is on the early phases. It is important that the groups work in close collaboration with the client. The groups will hand in a project report and give a final presentation and demonstration of a runnable system to the client and the censor. The following days are obligatory: the starting day of the course which is on Tuesday in the semester's second week, the guest lectures and the course in group dynamics, and the weekly supervision. A failure to meet on these days may prevent the student from completing the course.

Learning outcome

Knowledge: To give the students practical experience in executing all phases of large development projects. Skills: Ability to organize and carry out large development projects, as well as document and present results to a realistic client. General competence: Insight into project work and how groups can be used to solve complex software engineering problems.

Learning methods and activities

The tasks are carried out as group work with groups of 5-7 persons. Each group has an external customer and an internal supervisor. The groups have obligatory meetings with the supervisors every week, and the group project leaders also have weekly leadership meetings with the lecturers. The course includes a series of lectures.
