This seminar covers advanced topics in the area of software engineering. It prepares students for the scientific work expected in a thesis, by practicing the various phases, i.e., finding, reading, discussing, and reflecting on scientific work. In addition, students get introduced to the various research areas, in which our group is actively working, to provide them with the required background knowledge to accept a thesis in our group.

During the first weeks of the course, students will read papers and participate in active in-class discussion of the paper contents. Later, students will write an essay about a selected area of software engineering, will review essays of others, and will give a scientific presentation about their topic.
