The Fifth SEI Conference on Software Engineering was held in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, October 7-8, 1991. This annual conference is a forum for discussion of software engineering education and training among members of the academic, industry, and government communities. It is funded by the Education Program of the Software Engineering Institute, a federallyfunded research and development center of the U.S. Department of Defense. For the first time in 1991 it was held in conjunction with the Association for Computing Machinery and the IEEE Computer Society. Seven sessions addressed: software project courses, software engineering training in government and industry, curriculum issues, software engineering teaching styles, teaching design, topics inreal time and environments, and developing software engineering expertise.
