3rd year group project
• Groups of 6 or 7– Topic and group members pre-allocated
• Spread throughout the year– Synoptic with Software Engineering and
Professional Development

What is Software Engineering?
• It is concerned with the practical problems of producing software
• It is an engineering discipline concerned with all aspects of software production from specification to maintenance– Choose the most appropriate tools– Work systematically– Organisational and financial constraints

Purpose of SE Module• This module supports your work in the
group project, the 4th year project, and beyond– Combines topics of project management with
software engineering– builds on your previous programming
experience– and provides you with further tools and
methodological approaches to support your work in your major group project.
• Useful for 4th year project (and beyond)
