In recognition of the need for a program giving graduate specific training in Software Engineering, a new program has been developed in this field. Graduates will gain the necessary skills for work in this area, including the organisational and project management skills vital for a successful career. They will also have a strong foundation in the fundamentals of computing and gain valuable experience in designing, constructing and testing large software systems through extensive project work. The role of software engineers is increasingly vital in all aspects of transforming ideas into professional software solutions.

Graduates from this program will be able to analyse problems and apply software engineering techniques to design computer-based solutions for a wide range of applications. They will be competent programmers in one or more programming languages and have a firm understanding of the relationship between software and hardware. Graduates will be trained for employment in the wide range of fields requiring software engineering skills, including data analysis, information management, data processing, real-time process control, embedded systems, graphics design and game modelling.
