Description:

The Master of Engineering (MEng) program in Software Engineering expand students' knowledge of software engineering through intensive state-of-the-art courses, projects, and/or a research thesis in their chosen area of interest. Software engineering focuses on the development and use of rigorous methods for designing and constructing software artifacts that will reliably perform specified tasks. Courses in these programs are designed to give students in-depth learning in software engineering, and opportunities for advanced development of skills such as communication, teamwork and leadership, as well as participate in scholarly activities of research, seminars and presentations. The Master of Engineering (MEng) in Software Engineering is a course-based or a project-based master’s program that aims to provide the opportunity for students as well as software professionals to expand their knowledge and skills in software engineering.

    Application Notes :

    Proof of English proficiency is needed from those applicants whose first language is not English, as per university regulations.

    Additional Admission Requirements:
    • Letter(s) of Reference
    • Statement of Research Interests

    Prior to being accepted into the MASc program, applicants must find a professor who specializes in their desired area of research and who is willing to act as a supervisor. Close technical contact with a faculty member is an essential part of thesis-based graduate education in software engineering.
