Abstract
Web methodologies and technologies are evolving at a constantly high pace. It is essential for academics on the one side, to provide proper education for students at the undergraduate and graduate level. At same time, industry is struggling to get adequately trained engineers that are able to deal with the increasing complexity of today’s Web applications. WECU attempts to get together people from academia and industry to discuss best practise in teaching, education and vocational training of Web Engineering methodologies and technologies. The expected outcome of the event is to identify common concepts and building blocks for successful Web Engineering curricula, to discuss proposals of how to deal with the challenges in Web Engineering education, e.g., technology evolvement, and to discover ways of transferring new Web Engineering evolvements into continuing education in industry. Another main objective of the event is to act as a kick-off event for a Memorandum for Web Engineering Curricula. The organizers want to assemble this Memorandum for Web Engineering Curricula based on the findings from papers and discussions of the event. In this way, we hope to inspire and facilitate proposing new educational programs in Web Engineering.
