2024 36th International Conference on Software Engineering Education and Training (CSEE&T)

In a world increasingly driven by software, the role of a software engineer has never been more paramount. As software continues to evolve in size, complexity, and importance, the education and training methods to prepare the next generation of software engineers must be equally adaptive and forward-looking. Over the past three decades, Software Engineering Education and Training (SEE&T) has continually risen to these evolving challenges. Initially, the focus was on defining the role of software engineers and how SEE&T integrates into broader engineering and computer science curricula. The current landscape is shifting the focus on enhanced knowledge transfer, emphasizing experiential learning and aligning academic teaching with real-world industrial demands. The importance of effective communication, whether with clients or peers, emerging project-based and problem-driven learning methodologies, and the relationship between academia and industry form the very essence of modern SEE&T.
