Master object-oriented design and UML with Agile, SCRUM, and GenAI integration.
Skills you will gain
- Master Object-Oriented Design Principles: Understand key principles of object-oriented design and system modeling.
- UML Expertise: Learn to read and create Unified Modeling Language (UML) diagrams for effective system design.
- Agile & Iterative Development Methodologies: Apply Agile, SCRUM, and Unified Process to real-world design projects.
- GenAI in Design: Utilize GenAI tools to analyze requirements and evaluate generated code for accuracy.
- Hands-On Design Experience: Gain practical experience by completing real-world projects and documenting designs with UML.
Course Description
Object-oriented design involves transforming the descriptive analysis models into computational models for coding. During an object-oriented requirements analysis, a descriptive model of the problem domain is developed into system specifications. This course which integrates GenAI topics and their applications to Object-Oriented design is intended for software engineers and managers who will be involved in the design of an object-oriented system. The course focuses on case studies and carries them through the design phase. Instruction uses the notation specified by the Unified Modeling Language (UML) developed by Booch, Jacobson and Rumbaugh.
Students will learn Agile and Iterative Development methodologies, such as Unified Process and SCRUM, alongside use case and requirements driven design, among other important topics. The course covers the principles of object-oriented design as well as practical applications. Students will have the opportunity to utilize GenAI to analyze requirements and examine generated code for completeness and accuracy.
The course includes a comprehensive final project for students to practice requirements gathering and documenting design using different UML diagrams. Upon successful completion of this course, students should have an understanding of the principles of object-oriented design and system modeling and experience in applying these principles to real-world projects.
