BSc Software Engineering

Programming is fun! You no doubt have a phone, laptop, tablet, and so on; your car may have a navigation system, park itself, and have surround-space scanners, and you may be able to control your heating from a mobile. All of these nifty devices work using program code. At the heart of coding such systems are state-of-the-art technologies, including Android, C++, Java, JavaScript, Python, PHP, Prolog, and R, and program development environments like Eclipse. At Leicester, you will be taught to program in a selection of these languages and have opportunities to learn others in project work. Programming will include mobile and web applications and technologies.
