Introduction
Software Technology, Master Program (One Year)
This Program focuses on efficient development of high-quality software systems and combines theory and practice. It also prepares for postgraduate studies.
Within software technology you study theories, methods and tools for efficient development of complex and high-quality software. The Program emphasizes both theoretical and practical aspects of software development. It prepares you for a career as professional in software engineering, but you will also have the opportunity to pursue an academic career.
The Program gives a solid foundation in software technology and contains a number of general courses within computer science at advanced level. We present characteristics of different types of programming languages and how these can be used to handle different problems. We also present general methods and techniques to handle common problems within software development. This is supplemented by studies of mathematics and research methodology that are relevant for the subjects. The Program prepares for a future academic career by presenting and applying established research methods and practices in several courses, and ends with a thesis work.
