The Bachelor's degree in Software Engineering offers students an education that enables them to develop innovative, high-quality software, without being restricted to a specific application domain. This requires creative problem-solving using the latest methods and tools. The course goes far beyond pure programming, as it covers the entire software lifecycle: from problem analysis to design, implementation with a wide range of programming languages and testing, to maintenance and further development.

As a software engineer, you’ll oversee the development of reliable software systems in modern technology. Reliable software is essential to modern technology, from the embedded systems that make a washing machine work to the flight controllers on a passenger jet. In this course, we’ll focus on the design and development of embedded software systems.

Increase your freedom of choice: some software engineers work for the world’s top technology companies, others work for themselves. As a software engineer, you can work anywhere in the world and under the terms you want.

In this specialist route through our BSc (Honours) Computing and IT (Q62), you’ll become a confident user and manager of information technologies as well as a developer of software solutions. You’ll gain both a technical and business perspective of the advantages, problems and risks of developing and using software technologies.

Our graduates are creative problem solvers, lifelong learners, and highly adaptable leaders in our rapidly changing world. In addition to studying fundamental computing science topics, our students choose from a variety of elective courses, including artificial intelligence, software engineering, computer graphics, databases, programming languages, computer networking, and virtual reality.

Explore the world of computing: Delve into the principles and uses of computers and software, essential mathematics, a major final-year project, and a six-month placement in industry.
