Software Engineering

A software engineer is responsible for creating and maintaining secure and robust software applications. This involves applying a wide range of technologies and skills to formally design, develop, and test software to ensure that it satisfies the client or stakeholders’ requirements. Students completing the course will have sufficient expertise to enter the highly dynamic and rapidly developing software industry productively, with a minimum of training.

They will be able to operate effectively in a professional environment; they will learn quickly and will be ready to use new technologies. Moreover, they will be creative and based on the software engineering practice; will be able to produce ideas and solutions to make existing technologies more efficient, or to develop new technologies. These are only a few, but fundamental, features of the exciting modern software industry that largely drives our society and which you, as a graduate of Bachelor of Software Engineering, will enter.

The BSc. Software Engineering has been designed to:

1. provide students with knowledge and understanding of the fundamental principles and technologies of software engineering and general computer science;
2. give students practical skills in the application of existing tools and techniques for the design and development of software;
3. give students substantial experience in applying a systematic approach to software development and evaluation individually or as members of a software team;
4. make students aware of professional, ethical and legal issues that might arise in a software development environment;
5. enable students to develop as independent and self-critical problem solvers;
6. prepare students for continued study at an advanced level, either in formal postgraduate study or as continued professional development
