Software Development Studio 1

Applied Data Structures

Software Engineering: Transform

In this subject you are introduced to the steps involved in designing and creating a software solution to simple real-life problems. To enable students to design a program, the subject introduces the way to break down the problems into smaller parts and analyse them methodically by using simple techniques such as drawing flowcharts. You will be introduced to the Python programming language as a means of creating executable program code to implement working software solutions.

Elevate your software development skills with our student-focused course on data structures and algorithms.Learn to select and implement the right tools to solve complex problems, covering key topics such as the Java programming environment, inheritance, interfaces, polymorphism, exception handling, and the Java API. Master fundamental algorithms like searching, sorting, and graph traversals, and explore advanced file I/O techniques. Ideal for computer science students, this course will equip you with the practical skills needed to excel in software development.UniSA Online’s 10-week short courses give you the flexibility to upskill in a certain area, stay current with developments in your field, diversify your knowledge, or even explore a new direction in your career – without having to commit to the time and cost of a full university degree.  This is a second-year course from UniSA Online’s Information Technology degree. When studying this course as a &quot;single subject&quot;, prior knowledge from COMP 1048 or equivalent will support your success.Delivered 100% online, you’ll be able to study where and when it suits you. Access online academic and student support seven days a week, fit study around work and life commitments, view learning resources 24/7, and log in to the interactive online environment anywhere, any time and on any device. Should your course have an exam it will be scheduled for Australian Central Standard Time or Australian Central Daylight Time, depending on the time of the year.

This course introduces you to the principles and practice of developing applications using C# programming language. Topics include the C# programming language, ASP.NET, Web API, client-side libraries and security.What you will learn:<ul><li>Gain a solid architectural understanding of ASP.NET Core MVC.</li><li>Explore the entire ASP.NET MVC Framework as a cohesive whole.</li><li>See how MVC and test-driven development work in action.</li><li>Learn what&#39;s new in ASP.NET Core MVC and how best to apply these new features to your own work.</li><li>See how to create RESTful and Angular Single Page Application.</li></ul>

Design and build your technically creative future. Apply skills developing applications for Microsoft using CLI and C# programming language. Consider security and performance. Integrate web applications with back-end databases and create web services.

Web Development Technologies

This unit focuses on mobile application development using mobile development techniques and environments. Topics covered include app life cycle; small device programming; platform architecture including Google Android, Apple iOS, and Microsoft Windows Phone; web applications for mobile; cross platform development.Please Note: All students studying at Murdoch University will need to complete the compulsory unit, Murdoch Academic Passport (MAP100), which only takes 2-3 hours to complete online.

Mobile Applications Development

This subject introduces you to system analysis and design with Object-oriented (OO) modelling techniques for software system engineering. Major topics include introduction to software development process, requirements modelling, domain modelling, behavioural modelling, structural modelling and dynamic modelling. You will learn the use of Unified Modelling Language (UML) for the analysis and design phases of systems. You will gain the ability to apply knowledge of basic science and software engineering fundamentals to software systems analysis and design.

System Analysis and Design

Modern software development is highly collaborative. Teams of developers work together to take software from conception into production and continue to develop the software based on feedback from its use. This introduces a number of engineering challenges, as teams must ensure that the program works and is well designed, even while it is being modified by many people at once. Many of the software engineering practices and tool chains that are core to a developer&#39;s work are designed to support the collaborative nature of programming. In this subject you will work in teams to develop different features of a class-wide development project, to learn how software engineers design, build, deploy, and modify large programs together. Introducing you to key concepts, including distributed version control, continuous integration, deployment, and delivery practices, as well as agile development and software design, the unit will help you to hone invaluable applied skills.

Software Development Studio 2

Software development is a collaborative undertaking that requires the integration of different technologies to build elegant and intuitive solutions. This subject introduces you to the fundamentals of software production. Helping you to develop a strong understanding of how data is represented and manipulated within a computer system, you will solve problems in a series of individual and collaborative software development tasks. Your capacity for critical thinking, analysis and complex problem solving will be extended as you build interactive software in a high-level programming language, applying your skills to effectively communicate design choices. With the Australian Government predicting very strong future growth for the sector, highly skilled professionals who can harness the tools of modern software development are in demand.

Learn how to design and build interactive software. You’ll explore how teams work together in collaborative practices, then tackle group software development tasks and individual programming tasks. Incorporate design principles and a range of technologies.

This unit aims to provide a general understanding of software development frameworks, and the practical experience and skills in using an important software development framework, with an emphasis on language interoperability, platform independence and software reuse using Microsoft .NET Framework.Murdoch University students should also note that Software Development Frameworks (ICT239) is considered academically equivalent and therefore you should not enrol in this subject if you have successfully completed ICT239.Please Note: All students studying at Murdoch University will need to complete the compulsory unit, Murdoch Academic Passport (MAP100), which only takes 2-3 hours to complete online.

Software Development Frameworks

This subject is aimed at providing you with a modern view on how software is assessed for quality. We focus heavily on test automation as mechanism to achieve this. The industry-based roles associated with software measurement and testing are taken as models to describe the types of tasks undertaken by professionals in this sector. In this subject you will have hands-on practice with assessing software against quality metrics and facilitating automated testing using the latest frameworks.

Software Measurement and Testing

Throughout your studies to date, you’ve learned how to program a computer. You should already be very familiar with the basic building blocks of computer programs: variables, loops, branching structures, functions, and the like. This subject will focus on tools and techniques for software development, the process of designing, delivering, and maintaining high-quality software. You will develop substantially complex software using design patterns in the C++ programming language, and you will learn about the realities of software development from industry experts.
