The program involves study of software applications development process,
latest software technologies and how these technologies can be designed and developed.
After successful completion of the Software Engineering
degree, the graduates will gain a broad range of skills in the area
of software with strong analytical and critical abilities.
These graduates are ready to embark upon an exciting career in a
diverse range of software technology-rich companies and
industries. The department offers 4 years degree program of B.Sc.
in Software Engineering.
