Program Description
From biotechnology to sports to submarines, if students want a hand in designing and implementing the software systems that society depends on, Griffith's Bachelor of Software Engineering (Honours) is the ideal path for them.
Students will learn in state-of-the-art facilities from passionate, experienced teachers. They will be engineering from day one, with a solid foundation in mathematics, computer systems, engineering principles and information systems. In second year, students will explore computer algorithms, object-oriented programming, business analysis, computer network essentials and more.
Along the way, they will gain vital skills and knowledge in fields such as mobile app development, network security and project management. Students will also address the key social and professional issues facing software engineers as the 21st century - and humanity's complex relationship with devices - continues to develop.
Griffith prioritises industry engagement in everything they teach. Their degrees also have a practical foundation, so students know what they are learning will be relevant to their career long after they graduate. Students gain valuable skills in teamwork, project management and quality management as they complete project work developing software for real clients.
Their learning experience will involve practising engineers directly through their laboratory and tutorial sessions. Additionally, teachers will draw on their professional experience in choosing lab activities, projects and/or case studies, and problems. Students will also be exposed to the realities of current industry practice through a range of field trip opportunities.
