The objective of the Intelligent Systems and Services course is to deepen the understanding of intelligent systems that are driven by the proliferation of data-driven methods. The students will learn about technologies to model data and users via modern machine learning and artificial intelligence that allow collecting, analyzing, and making reasoned interpretations of data. The course will also cover the design and implementation of systems that harness the models in selected tasks. By the end of the course, students will have acquired the theoretical knowledge and skills required to design and develop intelligent systems and services capable of transforming services in various domains and enhancing user experiences.

Distributed version control systems (DVCS). Modern repository hosting platforms, such as GitHub and GitLab. Repository best practices, management, and administration. Solving repository errors. Continuous deployment processes and executing tests. Basics of container platforms, such as Docker. Deploying basic applications from source control systems.

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.

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.

Introduction to enabling pillars for digital business platform: IoT (Internet of Things), Big Data (Analytics), Software Ecosystems and User Experience (Cloud/Edge evolution and Digital Touchpoints), as well as elements of AI, within selected strategies and technologies. Discussion on the platform elements in various contextual settings, for demonstrating variety of possible approaches towards designing platforms. Identifying the tech patterns and digital transformations, underlying current and future platforms for digital business. Overview of the subsequent design steps for development of a digital platform for business.

The course will introduce and discuss Software Process Management practices emphasizing the most popular process models used in the industry. The course will provide knowledge about: -the different software process models and their application to different circumstances -the main roles related to software development processes -how to coordinate software development -how to interface and interact with a software team and among different software teams. -how to properly estimate the effort

The aim of Service Design is to show the broad spectrum of services and their relevance, especially in the field of software engineering. Basic theoretical definitions, as well as comparisons with the product-dominant logic, are discussed and current perspectives such as the service-dominant logic and servicification are elaborated. The value, which can be generated by a service, i.e., the value in use and value in interaction is covered when talking about why services take such a significant role in our economy. Based on this, digital services, and aspects such as software-as-a-service will be discussed. To successfully design services, the topic of design and its various facets will then be covered. Above all, human-centeredness is an essential point, which is then concretized with methods of service design and practical exercises.

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 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.

During this course, students apply all the software engineering skills they have acquired from their earlier courses to practice. Students form teams that run a real software project in collaboration with a customer, from requirements to implementation and delivery to the customer. Topics for the projects are generated by real customers. The focus of the course is on the process and project management issues, especially customer collaboration and efficient teamwork. Teams apply the Scrum process in practice and run their own projects independently using short iterations. Each team presents and reflects on its progress several times during the course. Students reflect on their learning in learning diaries. Delivery of the solution to the customer is required for the successful completion of the course.
