Software Engineering uses an engineering approach in the development, operation, and maintenance of large scale software. A software engineer needs to be able to employ systematic technical and management methods in the creation of high-quality software.
The Bachelor of Computer Science specializing in Software Engineering is designed to support the nation’s need for professional and capable software engineers to undertake the task of increasing the effectiveness and performance of both the public and private sectors. To further support this goal, the course is closely associated with the Malaysian Software Testing Board (MSTB) certifications and Hewlett-Packard (HP) Software Testing Program.
Career Prospects
Graduates of the program can work as a Software Engineer, Software Project Engineer, Systems Analyst, Systems Engineer, Software Quality Engineer, Software Configuration Engineer, Software Architect, Software Process Engineer, Software Test Engineer, Software Maintainer, Academician, Researcher, and Software Designer.
