Description
SENG3150 and SENG3160 form a 2 course sequence in which students apply their previously-developed knowledge and skills to a substantial practical team project. SENG3160 concentrates on the implementation, testing, and maintenance phases. A team project is undertaken which implements a provided design based on the SENG3150 project requirements. A second part of the course involves maintenance and extension of either the previously-implemented system, or legacy software for which documentation is provided.
