Abstract

As people start to realize how poorly documented and managed requirements can affect the success of a software project, requirements engineering education start to attract growing attention in software institutes and companies in China. This paper reports our considerations regarding course materials selection, course projects design and evaluation to better balance the needs of training future requirements engineering researchers and software engineering professionals at undergraduate and graduate-level, as well as software professionals.
