Academic/Industrial Collaboration in a Postgraduate Master of Science Degree in Software Engineering

  • Chapter

Abstract

This paper outlines the organisation of a new Master of Science (MSc) in Software Engineering that has been set up as a specialist conversion course1 for graduates who have had some experience of computer programming. The most distinctive feature of the programme is that this degree involves the participation of an industrial partner in providing some of the teaching and a period of industrial placement. Some observations upon the first year of this degree have been included.
