testablerequirements for the serious game. Delivery of milestone documents (requirements, project plan,software quality, risk management, design, and testing) at the same time or before gameprototypes are delivered also helps prevent students from coding first and documenting later.Students should justify technology decisions and game feature decisions by considering (anddocumenting) the cost and benefit analysis for each alternative, rather than just including afeature that seems cool.Traditional software engineering documents are similar in structure to those used in the gamedesign industry. Our students find that it difficult to use a design document template that mightbe useful for a project involving the creation of a form fill-in database application

The main reason behind this change in policy, is the way United States government, since 9/11, has made it harder for foreign nationals to apply for a work visa. Moreover, with the country at war, there is an increased need for improvement in defense technology and hence more funding is available for defense related projects, which are highly sensitive and require citizenship.Technical IssuesThere are number of technical issues that one should be aware of, when setting up anindustry academic collaboration in the area of software engineering.
