With the increase in the use of technology in almost every industry, the education of software engineers is becoming more important. In a society that is heavily technology-orientated, you will need to be able to deal with the problems that software can create. You will need the technical and theoretical knowledge required to work with computers and their various software systems.
An undergraduate degree in software engineering will give you a good foundation of knowledge around computer systems, information technologies, and computer programming, as well as other areas. Covering a wide range of topics will mean that you have a full understanding of software engineering, and are prepared to pursue a career.
Your degree will be delivered in a mixture of modes. These will include lectures and seminars, as well as practical and computer laboratory sessions. You may also be required to take part in a work placement year or module as part of your course.
