BSc (Hons) Software Engineering

A variety of delivery methods are adopted to achieve the intended learning outcomes. Broadly speaking, these are:

Lectures are used to deliver theoretical background knowledge and principles, and develop conceptual understanding
Workshops put principles into practice and develop practical skills
Case studies are used to develop students' ability to apply their knowledge and develop skills
Group work is used to develop team working and professional skills
Projects enable students to apply what they have learnt to a realistic problem
Professional issues are delivered through the combination of a dedicated module to provide a broad context and other modules to provide a specific context that relates theory to the students' own practical experiences and career plans

Key skills (for example communication and ICT) are developed throughout the programme.
