From video game designers to hardware engineers and website developers, software engineers are the architects of our digital world. They are essential for building and maintaining the infostructure that upholds the digital tools, platforms, and entertainment systems we use in our everyday lives. As a software engineering student, you will gain hands-on experience with a range of software development and design tools and programming languages used across different industries. Prepare to tackle the systems that shape our world and take the next step towards an exciting career.**What to expect**This degree begins by introducing you to fundamental principles and concepts in computer science and how they are applied. You will explore key topics such as software development, digital hardware, the fundamental underpinnings of computer science, and professionalism in practice. And, with this knowledge you will design and analyse systems and software, as well as work with end user feedback to debug and test computer programmes.Going into Year 2, you will be able to delve deeper into what intrigues you most and specialise your studies towards a specific career path. You will build and analyse systems and software, as well as work with end user feedback to refine and adapt solutions in a range of programming languages. This includes exploring a range of optional topics including concurrent and parallel systems, extended reality, internet applications, and artificial intelligence. You will also undertake design studio modules that will familiarise you with team-based software development, allowing you to gain skills in data analysis, graphical report writing, and presentation skills.In Year 3, you will continue to focus on collaborative design studio projects to enhance your software engineering skills. Alongside this, you will also learn a range of enriching topics through a selection of optional modules including languages and compilation, embedded systems, a range of AI and cyber security topics, digital health, and computer science education.**Master’s-level training**In Year 4, you will develop the skills and knowledge required to thrive in your future career, whether in industry or research. You will spend 10-15 weeks in industry, gaining valuable real-world experience. **Personal development**Throughout your degree, you will develop valuable transferrable skills such as analysis, problem-solving, and communication, which make you highly desirable to future employers. The practical skills you gain in software development, design, and testing prepare you for applications in the real world, and your insight into sustainable computing and AI will make you a unique candidate prepared to face the challenges of the future. You will also learn how to collaborate, research, and present your findings, developing solutions as part of a team and as a leader. **3 things our software engineering students want you to know:**- We have a thriving community that engages in a range of extra-curricular societies and groups. They’re a great opportunity to meet new people and build your professional and technical skills. Current groups include LU Hack, the Lancaster University Ethical Hacking Group who practice safe (and legal!) hacking FemTech, a group aimed at empowering non-male-identifying students in a male-dominated discipline and the Computer Science Society- We tackle the important considerations of ethics, sustainability, and AI as we learn. - Our campus is a fantastic place to learn! We each have our favourite place to study: in the SkyLounge with amazing views, in our brand new high-end computer labs or in the Science and Technology Building's collaborative and creative labs**Important Information**For the most up-to-date course information and more details, we recommend that you revisit our website before submitting
