5 Consider Software Engineering Software engineering is the study and application of engineering to the design, development, and maintenance of software. Computer science focuses on math and algorithms. As a Software Engineering Major, you will take courses in design patterns, project management, agile methods, validation & verification and learn all aspects of how to make a development project successful.

14 What Our Students Are Doing

15 Great Career Opportunities! Best technology job in America by the US News & World Report', software engineers have the ability to pursue a wide variety of career areas in a number of highly sought-after fields such as: Technology, Financial Services, Government, Education, Health Care, Consulting and Media/Entertainment.

16 Our Students Find Great Opportunities Royal Bank of Canada Morgan Stanley Johnson & Johnson Verizon ITT Avionics Our Career Center: Lockheed Martin Ranked #15 by US News FAA-Atlantic City and World Reports Merck Societe Generale Picketinny Arsenal Oracle Navair Netapp Northfort Grumann Started own company (Mr. Game, APP Cooking.)

17 What Our Students Are Saying The Class was very interactive, with ample practical examples. And, I just wanted to say that I am so happy to be studying a field that has so much potential in the future. Thank you for everything your class has taught me, I am very grateful to be attending such a prestigious university that offers courses by professors like yourself, caring and always so willing to help. I particularly liked the project at the end of the course. It put much more "meat on the bones" for the fault protection and added additional meaning to your "stop the flow" article. It gave me a good chance to put into practice what I have learned. I have learned many new methods that I can apply to my job that will help me progress my career. [The professor s] online courses should be the model for all other web campus courses. [The] projects [were].tailored to professionals and gave a real world application of the subject matter. The material coincides directly with my progression at work.
