MAJ03522 Software Engineering
Software engineers focus on large, complex, and critical software systems that are ubiquitously connected to our daily lives. In this major, students learn about the design, analysis, and management of software to ensure safe, reliable, secure, and maintainable systems. It goes beyond programming. Students develop skills to identify issues with existing systems and create new possibilities with the application of software design.
Career opportunities from software engineering can be found in almost every large organisation across industry sectors including medical, transport, aviation, defence, telecommunications, banking and finance, tertiary research and development.
