A B.S. Degree in Informatics: Contextualizing Software Engineering Education
Overview Educating students in Software Engineering (SE) is difficult. This is clear from dedicated conferences, myriad proposed approaches to teaching the material, and other widespread attention being paid to the subject. It is interesting, within this context, to examine different philosophies of the nature of SE education. Currently, these philosophies fall into two main streams of thought: SE education based on mathematical and engineering principles (as in the McMaster undergraduate degree in SE) and SE education based on the topics that are traditionally considered part of SE (as in the ACM/IEEE curricular guidelines for SE or ABET SE criteria). Both these philosophies have their proponents and opponents, and have been implemented at various institutions.
