Welcome Posted: Aug 21
Greetings and welcome to CPSC 480 Software Engineering (SE) section 010 for Fall 2026.
- Survey The first exercise is to fill out the class survey. The survey is due after our first class meeting, but you can complete it before.
- Syllabus The syllabus is available via a link on the main page. It is via Simple Syllabus and you must be logged into UA to view the full contents. The course description does not reflect the last changes, and should be A comprehensive overview of all phases of software development, including requirements, analysis, design, implementation, testing and validation, release, maintenance, and evolution, focusing on agile methodologies.
- Textbook The course has two textbooks. We start with the Head First Software Development (HFSD), available from Safari Books Online via a link at the bottom of the main course page.
- GitHub In the class, we use GitHub and a GitHub Organization to manage documents and source code for projects and examples. You are required to have a GitHub account. The account email (not necessarily the account name) should be your @uakron.edu email address. If it is, you can apply for the Student Github Developer Pack and get a free GitHub Pro account.
See you on Tuesday, Aug 25 at 12:15 - 1:30 pm in Arts & Sciences (CAS) room 136
