organization between 1996 and 2007. A preliminary mailing of a test survey was sent to afew employees who were originally interviewed at the beginning of the study. Then the surveyinstrument was revised and e-mailed to all Monmouth University MSSE graduates in thesecategories and to several other employees who were not affiliated with the Monmouth Universityprogram. In total 78 responses were received for a response rate of approximately 32 percent.The questionnaire developed for the survey was executed on an Excel spreadsheet. Respondentscompleted the worksheets which were then integrated into a common workbook and summarizedon a separate worksheet designed to accumulate the responses and to summarize survey results.A summary of survey results was

examine the current state-of-practice with respect toteaching Software Verification and Validation (V&V) in the accredited Bachelor of SoftwareEngineering (BSE) programs offered in Australian universities. An online survey was conductedto obtain the required data from these universities. The same online survey was used to obtaindata from the Certified Software Test Professional (CSTP) program. Nine universities respondedand the data obtained are compared to the data relating to the CSTP program. Consequently, thispaper reports on the differences between the two programs by focusing on the methods ofteaching and the coverage of those topics specified within the area of Software V&V Knowledgeas it is stated in the ACM Curriculum Guidelines
