SE 4000 - Senior Design Project I

• Work effectively and demonstrate initiative as a project team member
• Communicate project status and technical content in oral and written form to coworkers and management
• Capture requirements in user stories that describe incremental business value
• Create user stories with unambiguous completion criteria
• Apply analysis and synthesis in the design process to produce software that meets specified completion criteria
• Use principles from engineering, science, and mathematics to design and construct software that meets multiple realistic constraints
• Investigate, evaluate, integrate, and apply technologies and standards beyond previous coursework to support design and planning
• Develop and execute experiments to minimize uncertainty and use the results to justify design decisions
• Employ software engineering processes to develop software
• Use modern software engineering tools for process management and source control
• Identify, track, and mitigate technical and process risks

• Proficiency in requirements analysis, software architecture and design, software verification and validation, and team software process and either:
  • No more than 2 core classes from the freshman through junior years may be missing
  • The student must have a feasible (approved by advisor and program director) plan to graduate no later than in the fall quarter after completing senior design
