I’m wondering if you have any documentation related with the topic you’ve presented in the episode 110, or if you have written information related with roles and competencies desired for software engineers.

Thanks in advance,

Juan Carlos Vazquez.

But I did not get what you have against “computer science”.

I am an Engineer in Computer Science graduated from http://www.uclouvain.be/ingi.html and I can assure you we had a strong education, both theoretical and applied (including SW Eng lectures with multiple real-size projects)…

It is just that you unfortunately cannot assume on all universities “studied computer science” equals “truly knowledgable in software engineering”. My recommendation for CS students intending to work as a developer is to make sure you get good education in software engineering, e.g. taking relevant courses and working in as you say (close to real-size) projects.

Regards,
Michael
