Abstract

We have developed an educational course for professional engineers to improve their abilities in requirements engineering, especially, the ability to fully grasp problems of the real world in order to elicit requirements. This is essential for engineers to establish valid software requirements specifications (SRS). In order to improve their abilities, we teach multiple methods on RE: e.g. SSM, problem flames and goal-oriented analysis methods, as well as object-oriented modeling methods with UML. In this article, we outline the course and the results of our experiences. The course is evaluated qualitatively.
