Computer Science (Software Engineering)

About this course

Software engineering is the disciplined, systematic approach to designing, building, testing, and maintaining software systems. It addresses not just the technical craft of writing code but the organisational and methodological challenges of producing reliable, scalable software in teams and across complex projects. As software has become embedded in every aspect of modern life, the demand for engineers who understand both the technical and the process dimensions of building it has grown enormously. At Goldsmiths' College, this three-year full-time BSc Computer Science with a Software Engineering pathway gives you specialist preparation for a career in software design and development. The programme includes a sandwich placement year and a work placement, which means you will spend substantial time in a professional software environment before you graduate, applying what you have learned
