Software quality is a crucial issue in software engineering. As software has become ubiquitous, software products have become critical. This poses multitude of problems in the software industry, as there is generally a lack of knowledge of Software Verification and Validation (V&V) benefits and also there is a significant shortage of adequately trained V&V practitioners. This paper describes outlines of a research study that focuses on bridging these supply and demand and knowledge and training gaps in V&V education. Research outcomes both in terms of domain-specific research as well as pedagogical impact are presented. The basic project objectives are to improve software education at the undergraduate level and enhance onthe- job professional training, thereby increasing the pool of professionals with V&V knowledge and skills. The existing V&V course at Author's institution is critically examined with a view to enhance and modularize selected topics, and improve delivery strategies by incorporating academic research findings and industry best practices. The cogent modules and strategies being developed in this work will be shared among project participants and disseminated to other institutions through multiple channels. Students and practitioners will be equipped with fundamental theoretical knowledge and invaluable hands-on-experiences that will measurably increase their ability to contribute to the industry.
