Tietotekniikka - Software Engineering

Database systems. Database design. Object-centric modeling and ER-modeling. Specifying relation models. SQL and object languages. Perspectives into database design: How database is designed, how information is modeled, and what are information storage structures and access methods. Transforming ER models to relation model, and then to relation databases. The use of different file formats in different environments. Perspectives to database programming: queries and other operations, database management, e.g. triggers. Implementing databases in practice and how to use SQL databases from other programs.

The Software Project Management course introduces the fundamentals of project management, beginning with project definition through the post-project review. There will be an emphasis placed on applying project management concepts and techniques to software development projects. The following topics will be covered in the course: Introduction to Software Project Management Project Methodologies and Processes Measurable Organizational Value and the Business Case Project Managers, Teams, and Stakeholders Project Scope, Structure, and Scheduling Project Infrastructure, Resources, and Costs Managing Project Quality Managing Project Risks Project Execution, Completion, and Control

Applied software engineering course. The objective for this course is for students to learn how to use their software engineering knowledge in an entertainment software engineering context. With the selected game development tools, student is capable to independently design and develop a small game program on some modern game engine platform, or work as a part of a team developing a larger game product. List of Topics: lectures and project works:- Games as software products- Basics of processes and models applied in the entertainment software industry- Basics of the game development tools- Introduction to game engines and their functions - Basics of 3D objects- Introduction to game development-related programming problem.- Basics of artificial intelligence in entertainment software engineering context.- Basics of sound engineering-Gamification and Serious games -Basic principles of AR and VR development

Collaborative grant writing as a Skill. Targeted funding is EU-funding, i.e. Horizon Europe RIA or IA template is being instrument used in the course. Building a potential consortia to a potential call topic and creating a concept fitting to an existing call.

Individual grant writing as a Skill. Targeted funding is either Foundations, AoF or EU-funding, depending on the phase of Ph.D studies currently. Set of assignments that relate to e.g. building a compelling CV for individual grants, understanding the role of knowledge transfer on grant applications, making impactful and ethical grant proposals, and research plan draft of an individual grant

The course will cover the following topics. 1. Design theories, principles and methods: what are the different ways to approach a design task? What methods can be used?2. User experience in design practices. How can we design for a better user experience?3. Co-design. How and why should we involve different stakeholders in the design process?4. Ideation. What tools and techniques can we use to help understand a problem?5. Prototyping. What are the different stages of prototyping and what can we find out from different types of prototype?6. End-user evaluation. What evaluation techniques should we use with end usersto get feedback on design ideas?7. Expert evaluation. How can design experts contribute to evaluation of prototypes?8. Usability studies and usability techniques. How can we conduct studies that determine the usability of a new product? Can people use it as planned? Do they want to?In groups, students are asked to develop and validate a design for a new software product or service. In each session, students will learn and apply methods to their design and iteratively improve and develop their design to a working prototype for usability testing. The course focuses on 'beyond the desktop' and non screen-based interfaces and prototyping with physical materials may be part of the group work.
