As the global demand for software skills continues to grow and evolve, this new stand-alone degree program – one of only two Software Engineering programs at Ontario universities to be offered through a Computer Science department – features extensive paid co-op opportunities, providing you with a streamlined pathway to the workforce, and equipping you with the relevant interpersonal and technical skills to succeed.
The program differs from a traditional Bachelor of Engineering credential as it looks at the subject area through a cross-departmental lens. As a result, when you enter the workforce upon graduation, you will be well trained in specialized Software Engineering skills and knowledge, as well as educated in complementary disciplines, like Computer Science and Information Systems.
Here you will study a range of subjects , including object-oriented programming, algorithms and data structures, systems software, cross platform applications, software architecture and design, software quality, web development, and computer security.
This four-year co-op program offers a strong foundation of theoretical knowledge and emphasizes teamwork and professional development both in and out of the classroom.
