Course Objectives:

This course provides an introductory understanding of Software Engineering and provides practical guidance on the construction of object-oriented systems. This course covers UML and current Software Engineering methods along with computer diagramming concepts.

The overall objective is for each student to understand the concepts of modeling, diagramming, and formalizing system requirements as they relate to software engineering and networking.

Students with Disabilities:

Any student requiring accommodations or services due to a disability must contact Services for Students with Disabilities (SSD) in room 181 of the Student Services Center. SSD can also arrange to provide course materials (including this syllabus) in alternative formats if necessary.

Allocated Time:

You should anticipate spending two to three hours of study per week for each credit hour of a university course. Computer and programming classes typically require time in the upper range.

Class Format:

Class will consist of a detailed course syllabus. Please follow the schedule closely. I am here willing to help so please do not feel like you cannot ask questions and get help.

Assignments:

Homework problems are to be submitted for grading on the date specified in the schedule. Unless otherwise stated, no late work will be accepted!!! I would suggest that you get it done early just to make sure you don’t miss the deadline. Trust me! You want to plan to get it done early because something always seems to pop up or you don’t remember the deadline.

Grading:

	Points	Total
Homework	100 each	40%
Quizzes	100 each	20%
Project	100 each	40%

Final Project:

There will be a Final Project in place of a final exam. The final paper details will be supplied at a later date and ample time will be given in order to complete the project. You will be required to submit a project evaluation form in order to receive credit.
