== Course outline ==

Scientific foundations for Software Engineering depend on the adequate use of methodologies, techniques, tools, and abstractions for developing software. This course explores fundamental techniques for producing, deploying and analysing software systems. It includes three components:

# Software architecture in the strict sense: designing modular structures for reliability, extendibility and reusability. Software architectures address the overall organization of software systems and the techniques that make the development of large systems possible. Not all programming techniques that work on small programs scale-up; this course explores some that do.
# Non-programming, non-design aspects of software engineering, such as lifecycle models, and quality assurance (including testing and other verification methods).
# A strong practical content in the form of collaborative projects that applies the techniques discussed.
