Bachelor of Science in Software Engineering

Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University

The Bachelor of Science in Software Engineering prepares students to launch careers in industries ranging from aerospace software to video game development.At Embry‑Riddle, Software Engineering graduates are prepared to enter the workplace with teamwork experience, familiarity with software architecture and design, industrial-strength documentation knowledge and ability to perform quality assurance processes.In the Software Engineering degree, students collaborate with multidisciplinary teams of engineers to determine a customer’s requirements for a system to design, implement, build and test the product. Students learn to document the entire process, which is essential in successfully completing the final capstone project.While studying to be a software developer, you will have the opportunity to:Identify, formulate and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science and mathematics.Apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental and economic factors.Communicate effectively with a range of audiences.Recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental and societal contexts.Function effectively on a team whose members provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks and meet objectives.Develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions.Acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies.
