Leveraging AI Developer Tools in Software Development
This course aims to equip students with the skills necessary to effectively utilize AI-based developer tools throughout the software development lifecycle. Key areas of focus include coding, conducting code reviews, enhancing project management practices, and implementing automated testing and security measures. Students will engage in substantial hands-on practice with software development, both incorporating and operating without AI tools. This dual approach will provide insights into how AI tools influence software productivity at the individual, team, and organizational levels.
By participating in this course, students will not only acquire technical skills but also develop the ability to critically analyze the implications of AI integration within their projects. Understanding the impact of these tools on productivity will be vital in the evolving landscape of software engineering.
Office hours for instructors Andrew Begel and Austin Henley will be conducted at TCS 441 and TCS 445 respectively, as per the class calendar shared with students. This framework ensures ongoing support during the learning process, facilitating a robust learning environment.
