Software Engineering BSc (Hons)

Fascinated by technology and software, and keen to work with colleagues in the creative process? Well, teamwork is the secret of the Software Engineering industry because the complex systems which Software Engineers design and build are often too large for a single person to develop alone. On this course you will study practice and techniques for real-world software design and associated programming technologies – proving the theory with practical experience in software development and teamwork. You will learn how to reason logically, analyse problems and resolve them by building effective computer systems – the course’s large practical element, ensuring you are well prepared for an IT career. Our graduates are high sought-after in the industry. We help our students to build a strong link with industry through three-month summer placements and one-year placements. Both of these are offered to Year 3 students. Placement opportunities exists with local SME as well as large corporates. We are a small, friendly team with an ‘open-door’ policy for students. Our computing labs are fitted with state-of-the art PCs.
