Rui Maranhão

Software engineering is the study and an application of engineering to the software development lifecycle, including requirements, design, architecture, development, testing, and maintenance. It is important that Universities teach students not only the theory underlying these phases, but also allow students to practice using real systems.
Quoting Arie van Deursen:

When teaching software engineering [architecture] it is hard to strike the right balance between practice (learning how to work with real systems and painful trade offs) and theory (general solutions that any architect needs to thoroughly understand).

To address this, inspired by TUDelft's Software Architecture course, we decided try something different in the Software Engineering course of the University of Porto's [Master in
