Basic Schooling：4 Years
The Maximum and Minimum Years for Taking Courses: Three to Six Years
The Minimum Credits for Graduation：117
Degree Conferred: Bachelor of Engineering
Objectives of Program
The Software Engineering Program has been designed to prepare students for a successful career in the software industry and the information technology sector as software engineering professionals with a high level of international competitiveness. Through challenging curricula and innovative courses that combines theory and practice, students will acquire a solid understanding on all aspects of software development, a profound comprehension of engineering economics and entrepreneurship in software practice, and a breadth of knowledge and skills in engineering, computer science, mathematics and complementary studies that will provide students a base for life-long learning. Each course is delivered in English by an expert in the subject, and generally includes weeks of classes, practices, and group work, where students learn and apply principles, tools, and techniques in a real-world project environment. Class sizes are kept small to facilitate interaction and to promote effective learning. Each subject is taught at least once a year (some are taught two or three times) and most can be studied in any order, with the aim of helping to provide the kind of flexibility required by students with existing commitments.
