Milestones in Software Engineering (SEG) at the University of Ottawa • 1980’s: Undergraduate course taught in Computer Science and Computer Engineering programs • World leading research develops in areas such as telecommunications software engineering • 1994: Major expansion in elective courses • 1996: Software Engineering Option Created for Computer Science • 1997: Computer Science joins with Electrical and Computer Engineering to form SITE • Brings SE expertise synergistically into one academic unit • 1997: Full B.A.Sc in Software Engineering takes first students • Among first three in Canada • 2001: Accreditation by the Canadian Engineering Accreditation Board • 2004: Curriculum aligned with IEEE/ACM SE-2004 • 2006: Accreditation by CIPS for computing content Software Engineering - University of Ottawa - Timothy C. Lethbridge
Outcomes: Abilities of Graduates 1 • Apply • Mathematics and science principles • Engineering and problem-solving methods • Select appropriate patterns, architectures, technologies, standards, etc. • Perform all SE activities, including • Requirements analysis • Establishing measurable goals (e.g. for quality) • Modeling • Design • Implementation (programming) • Quality assurance • Deployment • Project management Software Engineering - University of Ottawa - Timothy C. Lethbridge
Outcomes: Abilities of Graduates 2 • Work with • Both legacy and new systems • Process models ranging from agile to more hierarchical • Experts from a variety of domains • Business, science, engineering, etc. • Show attention to quality • Learn new technologies as needed • Communicate proficiently • Understand and respect • Principles of ethics and professionalism • Social, environmental and economic impacts Software Engineering - University of Ottawa - Timothy C. Lethbridge
