COMP3500 is an annual course (6+6) that must be completed twice, in consecutive semesters. Students work in small groups and participate in all the development phases (requirements analysis, design, construction, testing and documentation) of a nontrivial software system. As well, each group has to address the control of the development process by constructing and following a detailed software development management plan. Students will also study relevant aspects of the software engineering milieux. Most students will work on projects for an industry, government or university client. Highly motivated students will be given an opportunity to engage with the ACT Innovation community and students across the university to create their own software-based start-up businesses. To enrol in this course you must meet the eligibility criteria, which includes membership of a student project group before the end of week 1, where the project has been approved by the convener.
