The MSc Software Engineering is an advanced course, where recognised experts in software engineering and related fields impart their expertise to students, enabling them to progress to a leading role in software engineering. The intention is to provide coherently designed courses of recognised quality, that reflect staff expertise and which offer students appropriate flexibility of choice. In furtherance of the University's mission "Making knowledge work", this course aims to enable students to develop computing related knowledge and understanding, practical discipline skills and a range of transferable skills that will enhance the students personal and professional development.

The objective of this course is to provide students with the education and training required to enable them to take up a leading role in the complex software engineering projects that are currently challenging industry and commerce. This is achieved by providing students who already possess a thorough grounding in the principles of computing with knowledge of current best practice in the principles and methods of software engineering, and the opportunity to exercise that knowledge in the context of a project of significant size. In addition, students' awareness of the concerns of software reliability, correctness, safety, usability, and cost will be developed by the course.
