Bachelor of Software Engineering (Honours)
Griffith University - Gold Coast
Overview
Software engineers design and implement the software systems our society depends on, from biotechnology to sports to submarines.
You will learn about software engineering theory and software development and program construction. You will study mathematics, computer systems, engineering principles and information systems. You will learn through group project work, developing software for external clients, and gain skills in teamwork, project management and quality management as well as embedded systems. You will also learn about international standards and industry best practice techniques.
In your first year, you'll develop a strong foundation in basic science and engineering principles. You'll study a range of engineering areas, letting you decide which area interests you the most. In the following years you will further develop and hone the skills learnt. Throughout, you will be exposed to industry and gain insights into best industry practice. Over half of the final year is project based and performed with industry, giving you exposure to a real-world environment.
You can choose to exit with a Bachelor of Engineering Science on completion of three years of study.
