Overview

College Diploma in Software Engineering Technician

Software Engineering Technician is a two-year program that teaches the skills required to write computer software while developing problem-solving skills using a variety of computer languages in a technical programming environment. 

A focused, hands-on approach combines with a broad base of languages and technologies, including web development, databases, and cybersecurity, to produce one of the strongest programs of its type in Ontario. 

The Software Engineering Technician program at Conestoga is most suitable for students who have significant exposure to the software industry but do not have the relevant academic credentials. 

This program is also suitable for students who are time-limited to two-year diplomas. 

All other students interested in careers in software should instead consider the three-year Software Engineering Technology program.
