Software Engineering 1

what did you think Software Engineering was about before you started this course?  After the first week, in what way has your concept of Software Engineering changed?

As someone who has worked in the industry, I've gotten glimpses into how the software engineering industry works to some degree. Thus, my preconceived notions aligned with what the book discussed. Unfortunately, my understanding of software engineering understanding hasn't changed, but It did feel more reaffirmed. I like that the book discusses breaking down large projects into smaller chunks, as it makes the idea of software engineering less daunting.
