Abstract

The introduction of software engineering in the Computer Science Department at RMIT has been accomplished through the progressive incorporation of a strand of subjects from first year through to research. The initial emphasis in these new subjects has been on functional aspects such as verification and validation of the users' functional requirements. The second stage has been to examine the incorporation of the full scope of nonfunctional requirements. The paper describes the research into an overall framework for handling such requirements, the subsequent incorporation into the course work Master's program, and the progressive introduction into the undergraduate program.
