AttachmentCIS_240_Software_Engneering
The main objective of this course is to provide students with the knowledge and necessary skills for building software with focus on analysis, design, and building models. It covers a range of topics including: concepts and terminology, the software development process, software planning and management, software requirements specifications, system modeling, software prototyping, quality specifications, program specifications, system and software design approaches (function-oriented design, object-oriented design, distributed systems design), software engineering CASE tools. This course is supplemented by a practical component covered in CIS245 (concurrently).

AttachmentCIS_440_Object_Oriented_Analysis_And_Design
The main objective of this course is to provide students with basic concepts, knowledge, and necessary skills in analysis and design of object oriented systems with emphasis on the models offered by the Unified Modeling Language (UML) and the system life cycle using the Rational Unified Process (RUP). It covers a range of topics including: Object-oriented design concepts, foundations and elements of the object-oriented model, classes and objects, relationships among classes, relationships among objects, approaches to identifying classes and objects, object-oriented design  and modeling methodologies using UML (class and object diagrams, interaction diagrams, state transition diagrams, component diagrams, deployment diagrams, etc.), the object-oriented software development process (analysis, design and implementation as presented in the RUP), CASE tools. This course is supplemented by a practical component covered in CIS445 (concurrently).
