Abstract

This paper outlines the organization of an MSc in Software Engineering that has been set up as a specialist conversion course for graduates who have had some experience of computer programming. The most distinctive feature of the program is that this degree involves the participation of an industrial partner in providing some of the teaching and a period of industrial placement. Our experiences with the academic and practical aspects of such a structure have been included.†
