AbstractThis paper reports on teaching a graduate-level course on UML based modeling and development for multi-tier web applications with J2EE technologies at the Budapest University of Technology and Economics. The main educational challenge addressed by the course is to find a synergetic balance for educating UML modeling concepts, J2EE technologies and advanced commercial modeling tools. As such, students do not only acquire modeling expertise but they also gain experience in industrial technologies and tools, which is a prerequisite for many job offers in Hungary.
