Do software engineering students need interdisciplinary skills? Do students learn different things from an interdisciplinary project work than from software development projects? How can a specific interdisciplinary project course be organized? This paper provides reflections about these questions, based on the experience gained through running a project-based interdisciplinary course thrice. This course is part of the master degree education at the NTNU, Trondheim, Norway. Students taking the course work in teams of five, often coming from study programs of quite different disciplines. There is no predefined project assignment, instead the teacher has only described an open-ended theme, within which different student teams then define their own project assignment. The paper provides some reflections and lessons learned that can be exploited for designing similar interdisciplinary team project courses in other universities.

“…In addition, to the "pure" PJBL courses, there have been experiences with many smaller projects in the context of more traditional lecture courses. Those projects either spanned several courses, taking place in the 4th semester of both the aforementioned study programs (Sindre et al, 2003c), or were embedded inside single courses, exploring more focused tasks like programming (Sindre, Line and Valvåg, 2003b), requirements elicitation (Sindre, 2005), and document review (Sindre et al, 2003a). PJBL classes have also been offered in a more flexible manner, using the form of an intensive course.…”

“…Typically software engineering courses are taught in computer science and engineering programs. 3,4 Since those students in those majors have strong backgrounds in computer programming languages and algorithms, the projects focus mostly on designing and creating complex software systems which require high level of knowledge and experience in programming. Those courses require students to work in small teams of up to four members.…”
