Degree Title:
Master of Science in Software Engineering
College:
Brandeis University
Description:

Software Engineering applies the principles of computer science and mathematics to achieve cost-effective solutions to software problems. It focuses on the systematic production and maintenance of software products, and involves not only the technical aspects of building software systems, but also a wide realm of additional considerations such as the collaboration required of programming teams, and the alignment of software solutions with organizational strategies.

The Software Engineering Program at the Graduate Professional Studies School of Brandeis University prepares students to participate within organizational teams of software developers, managers, users, and other stakeholders. It combines the disciplines of design, quality, programming, and management, so that students can ensure the delivery of reliable software to increasingly large, complex, and international end markets. The Program also addresses current trends in programming, development, and management.
