== Course outline ==

Software developers often follow architectural and design patterns informally without a deep understanding of the subject. This prevents the delivered software to work optimally and often to meet functional and nonfunctional requirements. The course provides a detailed understanding of software architectures and design pattern and how they should be used by software developers and in the software engineering process.

== Expected learning outcomes ==

* Understand the principles and foundations of software architectures
* Understanding design patterns and their use
* Develop high quality software meeting requirements
* Realizing how architectural issues can impact software design
* Understanding formal notations and specifications with related tools

== Expected acquired core competences ==

* System design
* Requirements elicitation
* Organization of software systems
* Use of design patterns
* Fluency with formal notations and supporting tools

== Detailed topics covered in the course ==

The topics below are presented with the granularity of at most the academic hour of instruction. For each topic it is specified if it an '''I'''ntroduction to the topic, a '''D'''eep explanation, or a '''R'''eview of a subject already covered in another course.

* Software Design and development
* Software Process
