COURSE DESCRIPTION
Create the smart software and systems of the future by studying Deakin’s Bachelor of Software Engineering (Honours). This course arms you with the skills needed to build disruptive technologies that create change, making you a sought-after expert ready to solve tomorrow’s business problems through creative computing solutions. Explore a broad range of exciting study areas, including robotics, algorithms, programming and software architecture, and apply your skills in world-class facilities.
Gain practical experience and learn how to work successfully in a team with project-based learning activities. Contribute to real-world projects alongside professional engineers during industry placements. You will develop specialised skills in robotics, cyber-physical systems and the Internet-of-Things (IoT), all while getting hands-on with the latest software engineering tools that allow you to push beyond the limitations of traditional technologies.
Want to be at the forefront of robotics, computing and smart technologies?
The rapid advancement in sensing hardware, computers and smart devices has created a growing demand for software engineers who can develop complex software systems that meet the need for smart and innovative technologies. From Mars rovers to smart homes and cities, robotic surgery and precision agriculture, software engineers combine software systems and embedded hardware to create solutions that benefit society. Deakin’s Bachelor of Software Engineering (Honours) prepares you to take advantage of this demand.
Your ideas and creativity will flourish in our state-of-the-art facilities. You will work alongside hardware designers and app developers to drive the development of computing solutions that interact with people, environments and other technologies.
Career outcomes
Graduates will be equipped to find employment in diverse areas of software engineering. You’ll be able to develop and implement state-of-the-art smart devices, systems and applications for industries including transport, health, agriculture and manufacturing.
You may pursue a career as a software engineer, software developer, programmer, embedded systems developer, robotics programmer or systems architect. Software engineers also work in specialist research roles; with experience, your career can move into project management and business development, in roles such as CIO and CTO, from start-ups to multinational corporations.
