  • Understand what software engineering is—and why communication and other soft skills matter
  • Learn the basics of software architecture and architectural drivers
  • Use common and proven techniques to read and refactor code bases
  • Understand the importance of testing and how to implement an effective test suite
  • Know how to evaluate and choose the right solution or tool for a given problem
