Abstract :
This paper discusses our experiences developing and delivering a computer security curriculum in a graduate software engineering program. It describes our program and student backgrounds, our approach to teaching computer security aimed towards a software engineering audience with disparate backgrounds, other challenges and solutions, course contents with emphasis on our core course, and additional venues and future plans.
