Study Details: MSc 1 year full-time
Deepen your expertise in software engineering by studying in one of the world-leading research groups in the field. This MSc is ideal for a software engineering career in large IT companies and start-ups, or in preparation for a PhD. The programme provides opportunity to conduct a substantial research or engineering project, many of which are in collaboration with our leading industry partners.
Large-scale software systems are essential in many industries. This advanced programme teaches you from world-renowned lecturers who are leaders in both research and industry.
You will learn to identify software requirements, design software architecture, develop and test software, and reflect on the professional responsibilities of software engineers.
