在这里学什么？

The Master of Science in Software Engineering (MSSE) degree program is designed to give recent college graduates, or college graduates who have had several years of professional life, an opportunity to enhance their careers and work on the leading-edge of modern software development. Software engineers who complete this program can rapidly assume positions of substantial responsibility in a software development organization.

The degree program achieves its purpose by providing students not only with the technical tools and techniques of the field but also with skills in communication, group interaction, management, and planning. The program emphasizes a process-centered quantitative approach to the engineering of software systems. The goal of the program is to give graduates an in-depth understanding of the tools, techniques, and appropriate processes for the management of software development, elicitation and analysis of requirements, architecture and design, implementation, and verification and validation of software systems. In addition, the program pays special attention to the issues related to communication and teamwork.

A special emphasis is on real-time embedded software systems encountered in such applications as the FAA air traffic control computer system, aircraft avionics, NASA’s space station, and others. In addition, the MSSE curriculum takes full notice of the Software Engineering Institute’s (SEI) capability maturity model (CMM) by incorporating the key practices throughout the coursework.

The curriculum for the program is structured into three groups of courses: core courses (15 credits), specified electives (6 to 12 credits) and a capstone experience (3 to 9 credits). The capstone experience is obtained by one of the two following options: a) the student must complete a 9 credit Graduate Thesis, SE 700 or b) the student must complete a 3 credit capstone experience which entails a major project that involves applications of the theory, practices, and technology studied in the other core courses. Students choosing the second option may take a project development practicum, SE 697, to satisfy the capstone experience or, in special cases, the capstone experience can be satisfied by completing a graduate research project (GRP), SE 690. If the GRP is chosen, prior to registering for SE 690 a faculty member must agree to be a GRP advisor and the student must obtain approval of a GRP research area.

Courses available as specified electives include metrics and statistical methods for software engineering, performance analysis of software systems, concurrent and distributed systems, software safety, and formal methods for software engineering.
