Query: Are Computer Science and Engineering Graduates Ready for the Software
  Industry? Experiences from an Industrial Student Training Program   It has been 50 years since the term software engineering was coined in 1968
at a NATO conference. The field should be relatively mature by now, with most
established universities covering core software engineering topics in their
Computer Science programs and others offering specialized degrees. However,
still many practitioners lament a lack of skills in new software engineering
hires. With the growing demand for software engineers from the industry, this
apparent gap becomes more and more pronounced. One corporate strategy to
address this gap is for the industry to develop supplementary training programs
before the hiring process, which could also help them screen viable candidates.
In this paper, we report on our experiences and lessons learned in conducting a
summer school program aimed at screening new graduates, introducing them to
core skills relevant to the organization and the industry, and assessing their
attitudes toward mastering those skills before the hiring process begins. Our
experience suggests that such initiatives can be mutually beneficial for new
hires and companies. We support this insight with pre- and post-training data
collected from the participants during the first edition of such a summer
school and a follow-up questionnaire conducted after a year with the graduates,
50% of whom was hired by the company shortly after the summer school.
