AC2011-2503: TEACHINGSOFTWAREENGINEERINGTOUNDERGRAD- UATE SYSTEM ENGINEERING SUDENTS

This paper describes the software engineering concepts that systems engineering students need to understand in order to effectively work with software engineers who may be members of their system engineering teams, both as students and as practitioners. Ways to introduce this material into systems engineering curricula are addressed. This paper is a companion to “Teaching Systems Engineering to Software Engineers” which appears in the conference proceedings of the 2011 Conference on Software Engineering Education and Training, published by ACM/IEEE.
