Why study Software Engineering?

In the Software Engineering programme, students learn the conception, development and programming of complex software architectures and applications as well as project management in the IT sector. Whether programming smart home applications, streaming platforms like Netflix, or logistics platforms like Amazon: Software architecture development and database modelling are the foundation of success. The goal of the Software Engineering programme is to produce high-quality software while reducing the complexity of a problem. But what are the methods behind this and how does it relate to computer science and mathematics?

The Software Engineeringundergraduate programme offers deep insights into the world of software development and analysis. In addition to Information Technology, you can also sharpen your profile through specialisations in the IT programme: Health Care, Finance and Insurance, Industry and Engineering or Mathematics. Thanks to the limited number of students, there is a close cooperation between students, doctoral candidates and the professors at the campus. This personal atmosphere enables an optimal, individual study with excellent career prospects.

Content of the Software Engineering programme

The Software Engineering programme is an undergraduate programme that leads to a Bachelor of Engineering degree in six semesters. In the Software EngineeringBachelor's degree programme you will explore the areas of software and web development, software architecture and project management and get to know the current tools of software development in small learning groups. In the process, you will learn to generate efficient programme code and acquire a high level of problem-solving skills through theoretical examination followed by practical implementation. In the Software Engineering programme, you will also get to experience the modern approach to implementing large software projects in a team, where soft skills such as communication and teamwork are essential.
