Intro to Software Engineering
The software life cycle is introduced, shifting emphasis away from programming as the primary activity of the software engineer and towards requirements analysis, specification, documentation, testing, verification, and validation. In the required laboratory, students will develop a software simulation of a game using graphics which is required to run successfully.

Sophomore Software Engineering Lab I
This course is the first of a two-semester sequence. Students apply the theoretical principles of software engineering to a software project. The entire class works as a whole on one project, which will be carried through the software life cycle from problem definition to implementation, with the course evaluation based on deliverables.

Junior Software Engineering Lab I
This course is the first of a two-semester sequence. Students apply the theoretical principles of software engineering to a software project. The class works in groups on a large product using the Scrum software engineering framework. At the end of the first semester students should complete the "Concept" phase of the Product with a working prototype. The same Concept is the starting point for the second semester where the students will complete the "Pre-Production" phase of the Product. At the end of the second semester students are required to present their projects.

Junior Software Engineering Lab II
This course is the second of a two-semester sequence. In the first semester students apply group-based software engineering methodologies to a large project. In the second semester students continue developing group-based software engineering concepts but specifically focus on individual software engineering concepts such as software testing, object-oriented design, design patterns, and code optimization. The first semester prototype is the starting point for the second semester where the students will complete the "Pre-Production" phase of the Product. At the end of the second semester students are required to present their projects.

Algorithms
Basic algorithmic analysis and strategies are explored along with fundamental computing algorithms. Connections between regular languages and finite automata, context-free languages and pushdown automata, and Turing machines and computation are established. The complexity classes P and NP will also be introduced.
