[Themaintainers] Maintenance engineering coursework?

[M. Scott Ford]

Hi Jonathan,

I’m excited to hear that you’re working on a course that focuses on maintenance. I really wish my undergraduate CS program at Virginia Tech had a course that covered that topic. (Maybe they do now?)

I’ve got some courses on LinkedIn Learning that you might be able to draw some inspiration from. There is not much academic rigor in the information that I present, though.

Thanks,
