Title :
Resolving Dilemmas in Software Engineering Education
Author_Institution :
University of Limerick, Ireland
Abstract :
Anyone developing a Software Engineering curriculum is faced with several dilemmas: Should it emphasize fundamental principles or current technology? Should it teach about a wide variety of approaches or how to use a few important methods? When discussing how the software industry does things, should we teach that this is what to do or what not to do? How should we balance "Core Engineering\´ vs. "Software Engineering\´ This talk will discuss one set of answers to these questions and outline a curriculum that implements them.
