Engineering concepts began to trickle down into theundergraduate curriculums, typically in the Computer Science or Computer Engineering areas. In 1995,ISO/IEC 12207 [1] was published, providing a baseline for the discipline. The concept of a softwareengineering major was first put forth in 1997 [2]. Work then began on a set of guidelines for thedevelopment of an undergraduate curriculum [3].In 1996, Rochester Institute of Technology admitted the first students into its program [4], which thenled in 2001 to the first programs receiving ABET accreditation using the program criterion of Figure 1. Aswould be expected, evolution within the discipline continued, including the publication of the first bookof knowledge for software engineering (SWEBOK) in

Currently, the Computer Science Department hasmore than 1300 students.Computer Engineering Program’s Senior Design Project CourseOur Senior Design Project Course serves as a project-oriented capstone course for computerengineering majors. This required course emphasizes major hardware and software co-design.This course satisfies the ABET requirements for providing students with significant hands-ondesign experience [22]. The course learning outcomes are as follows:Upon successful completion, students should be able to . . . 1. Identify relevant topics from previous courses and then apply

This paper willoutline and discuss the process that was undertaken to evaluate, design, consult, implement, andnow re-evaluate multi-year curriculum changes, including a continual improvement process.MotivationAs software systems and related technologies have become increasingly complex, the demandsplaced on software engineering education have grown [1, 2]. Current priorities in softwareengineering pedagogy include experiential learning and alignment with modern, industry-relevant practices to solve problems [1, 2, 3]. Like many institutions, the

Ourwork contributes to the engineering education community by: (1) describing a new rubric forassessing threat modeling based on systems thinking; (2) identifying trends and blindspots instudents' threat modeling approach; and (3) envisioning the benefits of integrating systemsthinking in threat modeling teaching and assessment.IntroductionWith rapid developments in computer science and growing dependence on informationtechnology, cybersecurity threats are evolving at a rapid rate [1], [2].

) have begun to influence software engineeringpractice since the public release of GitHub's Copilot and OpenAI's ChatGPT in 2022. Tools builton LLM technology could revolutionize the way software engineering is practiced, offeringinteractive “assistants” that can answer questions and prototype software. It falls to softwareengineering educators to teach future software engineers how to use such tools well, byincorporating them into their pedagogy.While some institutions have banned ChatGPT, other institutions have opted to issue guidelinesfor its use. Additionally, researchers have proposed strategies to address potential issues in theeducational and professional use of LLMs. As of yet, there have been few studies that report onthe use of LLMs

Similarly, Zowghi and Parvani [46] also investigated requirementsengineering using role-play to have their students understand the process of requirementsgathering from both the client and developer perspective. Role-play was used by Börstler [47] toteach students object-oriented programming concepts with class-responsibility-collaboratorcards. Vold and Yayilgan [48] achieved greater student engagement with role-play in aninformation technology course.
