The goal of the program is to train IT specialists capable of designing, analyzing, evaluating, developing, testing, implementing, and maintaining complex IT applications and systems.
The program will enable graduates, in particular, to:
- Design and develop computer applications according to rigorous engineering standards (software).
- Perform basic data management and analysis.
- Manage complex IT projects.
- Evaluate and maintain computer systems.
- Acquire skills for effective communication, presentation, and group work in a professional context
Graduates of the Licence in Software Engineering and Information Systems can continue their education to get a Master or Engineering degree in a related field. They can also join the industry to work on the development and maintenance of complex information systems and applications.
Specific example careers include:
- Software application developer/engineer.
- Software tester/Software quality engineer.
- Software project manager.
- Database/IT System administrator.
- Information systems analyst/Consultant.
- IT solutions integrator.
Within a few years of successfully completing the Licence program, graduates employed in the industry will demonstrate career advancement through leadership, technical responsibility, significant technical achievement, or other recognition of their effective contributions. In addition, graduates will be adequately prepared for a modern professional environment where they would be able to: apply the acquired skills in effective communication, responsible teamwork, and time management; demonstrate professional attitude and ethical decision making; and/or establish their own business.
Graduates of the Licence in Software Engineering & Information Systems can continue their education to get a Master or Engineering degree in a related field. They can also join the industry to work on the development and maintenance of advanced software and computer-based systems. The application of these technologies span industrial computing, automation, health informatics, smart agriculture, and smart cities. They can join a team to launch a startup to develop solutions relying on these technologies to serve the needs of clients in a variety of sectors.
Software Engineering Students often acquire a number of professional certifications in parallel with their formal training thanks to MUST’s Professional Certification (PCP). In particular, and concurrently with their studies, our students have access to free certifications provided by EC-Council, the owner and developer of the world-famous internationally recognized training programs such Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH), Certified Forensics Investigator, Certified Security Analyst (ECSA), Certified Network Defender, Certified Cloud security engineer, Blockchain developer, among others.
They can also acquire professional certifications offered by leading technology companies, including IBM, Google, and Cisco, through MUST’s Coursera For Campus platform. Certifications are available in various areas including system & network management, cloud computing, cybersecurity, data science, artificial intelligence, machine learning, database management & administration, “Communicating and Interacting Effectively”, and “Thinking Critically and Creatively”.
