Students work in small groups to engineer a prototype for a medium-sized software project. Following established software engineering design principles, they elicit requirements and document specifications, design the system architecture and user interface, carry out documentation preparation, implementation, and plan for maintenance. To this end, the paper introduces design methodologies in Software Engineering Management, such as project initiation, planning and closure, and Software Engineering Methods, such as agile, formal, heuristic and prototyping. Additionally, this paper includes a component on professional interaction skills within the workplace and CV preparation.
