Course Overview:
| Thank you for your patience while we
made upgrades to this offering.
Specifically, we reduced the size of
lesson 4 and we are in the process of
replacing lessons 1, 2, 3 and 5. Our
goal is to make this transition as
seamless as possible, with minimal
disruption to you the professional
student. In addition, a revamped
course will be on-line later this
year. This course will be more
interactive, allowing the student to
become familiar with basic software
engineering concepts all while
learning at their own pace. We will
let our community know as soon as
this course becomes available.
This course defines and describes the
software engineering book of
knowledge (SWEBOK) lifecycle phases,
how software engineering activities
are managed through the Guidelines
for Successful Acquisition and
Management of Software-Intensive
Systems (GSAM), and principle areas
of interest and concern when working
on a software intensive program.
Students learn fundamental software
engineering concepts used in the DoD,
identify common software management,
acquisition and engineering roles,
and understand the Air Force’s
principle software engineering
concerns.
SWE 201 is taught online by
asynchronous distance learning.
Students are required to pass a
series of web-based multiple choice
exams to successfully complete this
course.
