| Course Contents | The 5EC minor project enables minor students obtain the experience of working in teams while developing software. Students work in project groups on a full project implementation in the domain of data technologies, or game development. |
| Study Goals | For all projects: - Apply software development techniques to real world problems - Evaluate the conditions of working in groups in software related projects For game development: - make a realistic game design for a short development period - design, implement and validate a variety of algorithms, and integrate them within your game concept - distinguish the various modules of a game engine, and use them for your game concept - understand and implement some sort of intelligent behavior in a computer game |
