The Relevance (Why the course is being taught)

The BSc. Software Engineering at IUEA is a four-year course designed to give students  skills and knowledge in the latest and emerging trends in software engineering and to be able to apply this in problem solving capacities in real world organisational contexts.

At the foundational level, the programme is cross cutting and explores software engineering from the interrelated fields of computer science and information technology.

At the advanced level, the programme explores software engineering from an emerging and a global perspective so that students can understand and apply software engineering principles and skills to solve problems for local development and organisational needs to an international standard.

In the final year, students will be tasked with identifying a problem and creating durable and functional solutions using their skills in software engineering and so that they are ultimately prepared for working situation. Students completing this programme shall be equipped with an international standard and knowledge of software engineering and be able to apply for well sort after positions in leading companies and institutions
