Bachelor of Science (Honours) - Software Engineering

Program Description Software is critical to industry. It can save lives, improve performance and help predict future events. Students will be given the skills and the knowledge to create high-quality software with plenty of opportunities to access industry-standard facilities to test it. And that's what employers expect to see from students. Someone who is confident, work-ready and already has the software ​skills needed.

There continues to be a steady demand from industry and commerce for well-qualified software engineers. In fact, according to eSkills UK, there will be a shortage in the next ten years.

This software engineering degree seeks to meet that need by producing graduates with the precise combination of skills required to design and develop robust, efficient, high-quality software.

Students will learn core skills concerning the production of computer programs and applications, as well as specialist knowledge in areas such as software engineering and analysis and design.

All of the courses within the Computer Science cluster share a common first year. This will provide students with the flexibility to review their pathway once they have started studying. At the end of year one, students can choose to transfer to BSc (Hons) Computer Science or BSc (Hons) Computer Science (Games Technology).
