conference contribution
posted on 2005-12-01, 00:00 authored by Jean-Guy Schneider, L Johnston, P JoyceThe growing importance of software and its role in society places greater emphasis on developing suitably skilled software engineering graduates. In developing suitable curricula, it is vital that we understand standard models of software education, the educational processes and outcomes for the students. This is important not only for students completing a software engineering degree, but also once they have graduated and used their skills as practitioners. Here, we report on a survey of past students who have completed an undergraduate degree in software engineering and compare their perceptions with current efforts to standardise undergraduate software engineering curricula. © 2005 IEEE.
