Major in Software Engineering and Programming Systems

Students completing the major “Software engineering and programming systems” will be able to:

• Understand and explain problems that come up during large scale software projects as well as the long-term critical impact that their choice of solutions may have (construction dimensions as well as validation, documentation, communication and management of a project involving large teams as well as costs and deadlines),
• Select and apply methods and tools of software engineering to develop complex software systems and meet strict quality standards: reliability, adaptability, scalability, performance, security, usefulness,
• Model the products and processes necessary to obtain such systems and analyse these models,
• Develop and implement analytical programmes focused on conversion and optimisation as well as computer representations,
• Put to good use different programming paradigms and languages, in particular those that deal with functional, object-oriented and competing programmes,
• Understand the issues associated with different and competing programming models and use the appropriate model,
• Define a new language (syntax and semantics) suitable to a specific context.
