Department of
Software Engineering
» Synopsis:
The aim of the
Department of Computer Software (DCS) is to
address the growing need for professionals in
the field of Computer Software and Software
Engineering. Graduates of this program will
work with the engineering of software, with
special attention devoted to large and critical
systems.
The program
is designed to address both analytic and practical
skills required by students to develop robust
and efficient computer software systems for
manufacturing, industrial and business applications.
Students will have individual and team hands-on
experience with timely, cost-effective and state-of-the-art
processes, methods and tools.
Furthermore,
the program will produce individuals who are
grounded in scientific, mathematical, and technical
knowledge through coursework that keeps pace
with current relevant technologies.
