Department of Computer Science & Engineering, NIT, Rourkela was established in 1982. Since its inception, the Department is under dynamic progress and is able to establish the reputation for imparting quality education both at undergraduate and graduate programmes.  The department has well equipped modern laboratories such as Software Engineering, Information Security & Data Communication, Image Processing & Cluster Computing and Advanced Database Engineering Labs for pursuing research keeping in view of the technological advancement.

Good quality software can only be developed if the engineers will know the various software engineering techniques. This course aims at covering the important software engineering principles needed for developing good quality software. The course would enable the participants to learn the skills necessary to develop large software products. An important part of this skill would be designing software. The design techniques - SA/SD, UML and Unified process - would enable the participants to assimilate the role of abstraction and decomposition in handling design complexity. Besides, the participants would learn how to carry out proper specification of a problem, user interface design, testing, project management, software maintenance, software reuse etc. The course will cover the practical applications of software engineering principles through many laboratory classes. The course will help to provide foundation for designing large object-oriented S/W using “Rational Rose”, a CASE tool for object-oriented S/W design. Also the participants would learn how to generate test cases for object-oriented software using various testing tools such as “Test complete” etc.

The course will be offered by faculty members of NIT, Rourkela and other sister NITs, experts from IIT Kharagpur and experts from industry.

The course is free for faculty members of AICTE recognized colleges. Applications in prescribed format must reach the coordinator through proper channel on or before 11th May 2009. The participants from AICTE recognized colleges will be reimbursed 3rd A/C to and fro railway fares through the shortest route. Besides, the participants will be provided free lodging & boarding inside the campus. Copies of the registration form can be made, if necessary. Please send the filled in form to the Coordinator on or before 11th May 2009. The details of the course & the form can also be downloaded from our institute website: http://www.nitrkl.ac.in
