    • Welcome Message to my Students 

      My Dear Students,
       Greetings to you all. I'm Taslima Ferdaus Shuva, Senior Lecturer in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at the Daffodil International University. I am also a PhD student at Jahangirnagar University.  
      I have completed ny B.Sc. as well as M.Sc. in Information Technology from Institute of Information Technology(IIT),Jahanagirnagar University.
      In this semester I am going to conduct the course CSE333: Software Engineeering. This will deal with planning the development of information systems through understanding and specifying in detail what a system should do and how the components of the system should be implemented and work together.   We will also learn how System analysts solve business problems by analyzing the requirements of information systems and designing such systems by applying analysis and design techniques.
      I'm delighted that you are interested in taking our specialization. We have done our part to make this a rewarding educational experience. Now it's your turn, good luck.

      Instructions on how to go through the Course Software Engineering






    • Course Rationale:

      Software Engineering is designed helping students to grow up and understanding of how to develop a software system development process and giving them the fundamental principles of system development with object-oriented technology using Use Case Model, Object-Oriented Model. The course will initiate students to the different software process models, project management, software requirements and design as a problem solving activity, key elements of analysis and design, and the place of the of the analysis and design phases within the system development life cycle. 


    • Course Objective:

      This course aims at introducing to the students about the product that is to be engineered and the process that provides a framework for the engineering technology. The course facilitates the students to analyze risk in software design and quality and to plan, design, develop, and validate the software project.

    • Course Outcomes (CO’s):

      On the successful completion of the course, students will be able to, 

      CO1: Explain a process model for a software project Development 

      CO2: Prepare the SRS (Software Requirements Specification), Design document, Project plan of a given software system. 

      CO3: Apply Project Management and Requirement analysis, Principles to S/W project development. 

      CO4: Generate test cases using the techniques involved in selecting: (a) White Box testing (b) Block Box testing. 

      CO5: Analyze the cost estimate and problem complexity using various estimation techniques, reviews and inspections are used as a mechanism for
      software quality assurance and management.
