The Bachelor of Science in Software Engineering teaches students to design and program computers and computer-based systems. The program produces practical software engineers who can analyze and determine the needs of a system and apply engineering principles to create software and hardware solutions. Students study modern programming languages, algorithm development, software design and testing, as well as computer organization and architecture, micro-controller system design, programmable chip technology, and knowledge acquisition using UML. All students will complete a capstone in which they propose, design, build, test and deliver a working software application.

Student Outcomes

Upon graduation, graduates will be able to

  • Identify, formulate and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science and mathematics
  • Apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety and welfare, as well as global, cultural social, environment and economic factors
  • Communicate effectively with a range of audiences
  • Recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental and societal contexts
  • Function effectively on a team whose members together provide leaderships, crate a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks and meet objectives
