Software Engineering with Work Placement

About this course

Software engineering is the discipline concerned with the systematic design, development, testing and maintenance of complex software systems. Unlike programming as a craft, software engineering applies rigorous principles to the challenge of building large-scale, reliable and maintainable software in team environments under real-world constraints of time, budget and evolving requirements. It is one of the most in-demand graduate disciplines in the modern economy, as software underpins almost every sector from finance and healthcare to transport, education and public services. At the University of Glasgow this programme combines theoretical grounding in computing science with the principles and practices used in the modern software industry, giving you real-world experience of software development at scale. The course runs over five years full time, reflecting both the depth of the Scot
