This is a senior project course integrating software engineering knowledge and skills acquired in previous courses. This course provides a capstone design experience for students interested in software engineering.  While previous courses in the curriculum provide students with the knowledge and skills necessary to begin a career as a software engineer, the end-to-end design and implementation experience offered in this course comes much closer to the experience that software engineering professionals encounter in the work place. The emphasis on documentation and presentation of designs and results is also valuable career preparation and forces students to take ownership of their designs and systems as they present them to others.
