Exporting Studio: Critical Issues to Successfully Adopt the Software Studio Concept

摘要

In 1989 the Professional Masters of Software Engineering (MSE) program at Carnegie Mellon initiated a new approach to graduate level software projects: The Software Development Studio. In 2002 the Studio concept was first exported under a cooperative program to teach software engineering at an international partner university. However, CMU quickly determined that student projects, at this partner, lacked progress compared to their CMU counterparts. This paper will focus on the critical lessons that were learned from this "export" that not only has helped this partnership but also others that are just starting.
