Course Objectives
▪ The course will provide students with the valuable information
related with software engineering requirements which is the
foundation of the successful software development.
▪ The course will introduce requirements engineering process
and activities namely, requirements elicitation, analysis,
specification, verification, validation and management.
▪ The course will align students with the contemporary models
and concepts for capturing and representing software
requirements.
▪ The course will improve students’ background information on
software development by providing requirements quality
concepts.
▪ The course will provide a bridge between requirements
engineering and Agile methodologies.
