1. 掌握软件工程的基本含义、它的主要作用、软件开发的过程。
2. 掌握软件开发各个阶段的主要目的和可能采用的一些技术手段和方法。
3. 理解软件项目管理的主要思想。
同时，本课程将启发员工把握软件开发过程的基本规律，掌握和运用软件分析、设计的常用方法、软件开发过程的管理方法以及质量保证方法等，来解决软件开发中的实际问题，达到学以致用的目的。课程完成后，员工能够应用软件工程的思想指导软件开发实践，并能够比较容易地进行软件工程其他相关后续课程的深入学习。
The introduction of course ---Software Engineering
Software Engineering is a discipline concentrating on the study of software development and maintenance as well as software management. This course belongs to the teaching part specified by the Guiding Teaching Plan for the Computer Science and Technology Specialty. The objectives of the course are aimed at introducing fundamental principles and main ideas of software engineering, presenting a general and comprehensive view of the activities in each phase of software development, maintenance and management. The course will lay a solid theoretical basis for students to further studying other courses related to software engineering, such as software requirement process, software analysis and design, software project management and software process management.
Through learning of this course, students will be able to:
1. Master the fundamentals of software engineering, its main functions and the process of software development.
2. Master the primary purposes, possible methods and techniques for each phase in software development.
3. Understand the main ideas of software management.
This course will inspire students to grasp the basic laws of software development process, it will teach them to master and use the commonly used methods for software analysis & design, management of software process, and software quality assurance. Together with all these methods and techniques, students will know how to solve the practical problems in software development, and to apply what they learn in classes to real jobs. After the completion of the course, students should be able to apply ideas of software engineering to guide their software development practice, and proceed more easily during the in-depth study of follow-up courses related to software engineering.
