Tietotekniikka - Software Engineering

The course will introduce and discuss Software Process Management practices emphasising the role of project manager and product owner. The course will provide knowledge about:  -the different software processes investigating the different phases in detail including maintenance and retirement; -how to coordinate the development of a software project -how to interface and interact with a software team and among different software teams. -how to properly estimate the effort and how to negoziate the cost with the customer -how to report the results obtained.

In industrial practice, software developers are often confronted with already existing software systems that need to be maintained, reused or evolved. This requires specific skills to understand the design and implementation of an existing system and which parts need to be modified, to build software systems that are easier to maintain, and to design systems with reuse and evolution in mind from the very start.This course will thus study a variety of techniques, tools and methodologies to help building software systems that are easier to understand, maintain, reuse and evolve.

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

Design principles of web and mobile interfaces. Human-centered design process. Understanding users through basic HCI research methods and applying this knowledge in design. Design techniques, such as use cases, prototyping, story-boarding, and usability evaluation. Usability and user experience as concepts. Usability standards in interface design and usability testing. Design patterns and considerations of designing interfaces for modern software systems. Basics of front-end programming for user interfaces.

The course emphasizes the role and impact of IT field and especially software engineering in the sustainable development. The topic is covered through selected books and scientific articles. Students may be divided into small groups that will each study the topic.

Opiskelija hakeutuu yritykseen (kesä)töihin, työskentelee siellä työntekijänä työsuhteessa, pyytää työstä työtodistuksen ja hyväksyttää työn tekniikan kandidaatin tutkinnon harjoitteluksi. Harjoitteluun hyväksyttävän työsuhteen kesto on vähintään 4 viikkoa kokoaikaisessa työsuhteessa. Kandidaatintyön tekemistä ei hyväksytä harjoitteluksi. Harjoittelun tarkastajan harkinnan mukaan harjoitteluksi voidaan hyväksyä myös ennen opintojen alkamista tehty työ, jota ei ole hyväksytty opiskelijan aiempiin tutkintoihin Katso tarkempia ohjeita: https://elut.lut.fi/fi/opintojen-suorittaminen/tyoharjoittelut/tyoharjoittelut-tekniikan-koulutusohjelmissa

Research reporting. Finding and using software engineering literature. Systematic literature and mapping studies. Selecting a topic for a master thesis. Individual working on the topic that can be related to the master thesis. Writing a research report. Presenting research.

This course aims give students a chance to create unique projects with a hands-on approach. The course guides students to find their interest in software engineering skills and to help each student find their desired path in software developing in the future. There are also several other Software Development Skill courses available on different topics. The course gives the student basic understanding of full-stack development. The goal is to create a basic front- and back-end and bundle them together as a complete system. The focus is to understand the bigger picture and how to bundle different software components together to create a working program. You will learn how to use MEAN-stack as a full stack tool bundle to create an app from scratch. Course is 100% online self-study.

There are also several other Software Development Skill courses available on different topics. The goal in this course is to make a responsive webpage using html, CSS and a little JavaScript. These are the basic tools to make today's web-frontend. Students may use Bootstrap or animations in addition. The project focuses only on the layout, styles and the overall structure of the page. Course is 100% online self-study.

The course introduces the concepts of business idea, business plan, software business models and strategies, and the software value network. 

Modeling in Software Engineering Body of Knowledge (SWEBOK). Principles and foundations of software engineering. Prototyping techniques. Object-oriented modeling. Data-centric models. Model-driven architecture (MDA). Modeling techniques. Importance of modeling in software development projects and processes.

The course centers around software architecture design and meeting the needs of the stakeholders of the system. The contents include basics of software and systems architecture, identifying architecturally significant requirements, designing software architecture with views, and evaluating software architectures. In addition, wider concepts of enterprise architecture and integration are introduced to put architectures in their context. The course includes a large practical design work that goes through these concepts.

Students form teams that run a real software project from customer needs to requirements, from implementation to testing. Topics for the projects are generated by 'real' customers based on some theme. The focus of the course is on project management issues from customer interaction (from needs to customer testing) to internal project management. Each team will create a project plan with proper requirements analysis, design and implementation plan ending to real user testing. Teams run their own projects independently but each team needs to present the progress and development plan for the next week on a weekly basis. The project is closed with a written report, a presentation of the project results, and a project post mortem analysis. Delivery of the solution to the customer is required for successful completion of the course.

This course is the capstone project of the students in Prophet programme. Capstone projects emphasize implementation of a project from requirements to the solution. This project combines the courses of Prophet semester 1 with a practical theme of ICT solutions for SDGs. Student pairs will familiarize themselves to different SDGs, their targets and measures, select one of the SDG targets and provide a practical software solution to the challenge selected.

The focus of this course is in helping the student to choose and apply requirements engineering (RE) techniques to different types of software development situations. The course considers a variety of software development contexts such as bespoke software development, market-driven, and agile development and discusses how these contexts affect the choice of RE techniques. To this end, different RE-related techniques as well as different underlying principles and formats for documenting and maintaining requirements are covered.
