SENG6050Web Engineering

Course handbook

Description

This course introduces students to the discipline of web engineering and the methods and techniques used in web-based system development. In contrast to traditional software engineering, web engineering methods and techniques must incorporate unique aspects of the problem domain such as: document oriented delivery, fine-grained lifecycles, user-centric development, client-server legacy system integration and diverse end user skill levels. This course draws upon previous programming and computing experience to develop practical web development and maintenance skills. This course is intended for students with knowledge of both Internet communication concepts and an introductory programming knowledge (Java & Javascript).
