Software Engineering - Bachelor's (B.S.)
DEGREE OVERVIEW
The Bachelor of Science in software engineering degree program is designed to prepare students for professional and academic careers in the field of software engineering. This program is ideal for students who are interested in designing and developing the entire life cycle of software systems.
ABOUT THE PROGRAM
Students in the B.S. in software engineering program will gain fundamental knowledge and practical skills in engineering software systems, including the ability to implement, test, and maintain those system; to identify needs and software requirements in an application domain; and to design systems to meet desired needs within realistic constraints. Software engineering principles could apply to different domains, including, but not limited to, video games, financial software, communication software, social network apps, personal computing, and scientific computing.
Students will also apply the knowledge and skills gained in the classroom in real-world settings through internships or co-ops and course projects, including the capstone project.
The 124-hour curriculum leads to a Bachelor of Science degree in software engineering. Transfer students may receive credit for courses listed in the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board’s Field of Study Curriculum.
