諾丁漢大學(xué)馬來西亞分校

Our BSc Software Engineering degree has common modules with our computer science degrees, but is tailored to focus more on the design and implementation of large software systems – particularly those with interactive or multimedia components. It is built around four themes: the design and implementation of software systems; the use and development of networked and distributed systems; user interface principles; and evaluation and testing. If you enjoy building things, and want to learn to construct software systems – including the consideration of people as well as machines – then this course is a good option. You will gain general knowledge and understanding of computer and software systems; specialised knowledge of the design, implementation, user interfaces and evaluation of software systems; experience in using variety of problems encountered in the area of software engineering; and an understanding of the professional, legal and ethical aspects of the discipline.

Careers

While many computer science graduates do become programmers, others are employed in a wide variety of jobs. These include computer analysts, IT consultants and planners, network/systems designers and engineers, researchers, software designers and engineers, web designers, web developers and producers as well as roles across advertising and marketing, business and financial analysis, accountancy and investment/merchant banking and legal and quality assurance professions. Some of our graduates have gone on to work for traditional computer companies such as Adobe, Google, Hewlett-Packard, IBM and Microsoft. Others have found jobs with employers such as Accenture, Experian, and Ocado.

New computer science graduates frequently command some of the highest-paid entry-level positions compared to graduates in other disciplines. Many of our graduates continue to further studies in subjects such as machine learning, e-commerce, information security and psychology. The School has a good record for recruiting PhD students from our own graduates and our MSc degrees prove an attractive option.
