So far this semester, students have formed teams to work in their software engineering projects. Now, it is time to decide on what sort of software system they want to develop. Students are given the flexibility to select their own projects, hopefully for a real-world organization who has a software need. And, they also select the programming environment and languages to implement the system with.
Take a look at this to see what software engineering students across the pond developed during their senior project course.

Here's another example of the extremely creative projects students come up with - this one uses Second Life, virtual environment.

How about learning software engineering by playing a game?

Software engineering really can be fun!
