Abstract :
The paradigm shift from waterfall to evolutionary software development (that includes agile development) has been widespread in industry, but academia is still struggling with it. This position paper reiterates the reasons for the paradigm shift that illustrate the importance of the shift. The position paper then discusses what the shift means for the software engineering education. As an example, it briefly presents how software engineering is taught at Wayne State University.
