Computer Science (Software Engineering)

About this course

Computer science with a specialisation in software engineering is a degree that takes the mathematical and theoretical foundations of computing and connects them to the specific discipline of building reliable, well-structured software systems at scale. Software engineering is concerned with the processes, methods, and tools that allow teams to produce software that works, that can be maintained and extended, and that meets the real requirements of users and organisations. Combining this specialisation with a broad computer science foundation gives you both the deep technical knowledge and the systematic approach to development that the industry values. At Newcastle University, this three-year full-time BSc offers a flexible programme that gives you the opportunity to explore the full breadth of computer science in your early years before moving into the software engineering specialisat
