Overview

Bachelor of Software Engineering (Honours)

From biotechnology to sports to submarines, if you want a hand in designing and implementing the software systems our society depends on, Griffith's Bachelor of Software Engineering (Honours) is the ideal path for you.

You'll learn in state-of-the-art facilities from passionate, experienced teachers. 

You'll be engineering from day one, with a solid foundation in mathematics, computer systems, engineering principles and information systems. 

In your second year, you'll explore computer algorithms, object-oriented programming, business analysis, computer network essentials and more.

Along the way, you'll gain vital skills and knowledge in mobile app development, network security and project management. 

You'll 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.

WORK-INTEGRATED LEARNING (WIL)

An integrated program of exposure to industry practice is built into the program. 

Practising engineers will be directly involved in the learning and teaching process, mainly through involvement with laboratory and tutorial sessions. 

Staff will draw upon their industry/professional experience in choosing their laboratory activities, projects, and/or case studies and problems. 

Field trips will enhance awareness of the current industry/professional practice.

The Software Engineering program has two Work Integrated Learning courses in the final year, comprising over half of the last year.
