Bachelor of Engineering Science - Software Engineering (EE)

Program Description

All Engineering students will complete a common first year, meaning all students take the same courses allowing them to experience various disciplines of engineering before deciding on an area of specialization. After completing the common first year, students will enroll in one of nine programs. During the common first year, students will solve real engineering problems. They will be provided with the fundamentals needed for success in upper years, while exploring various engineering disciplines. 

After completing Western Engineering’s Common First Year, students can enroll in the Software Engineering program. Software engineering is a systematic and disciplined approach to developing software. It applies computer science and engineering principles to the creation, operation, and maintenance of software systems. Software engineers specify, design, implement, and maintain innovative software systems. Western’s Software Engineering program is implementing the real-world design education approach. Students engage In experiential learning opportunities and project-based courses, building software systems, ranging from apps for mobile devices to systems used by world-wide organizations. 

NOTE: Please note the English scores listed are minimum requirements. Meeting the minimums does not guarantee admission. Students with low English scores may be admitted to the English BOOST Program, a 9 week training program for conditional admission to their chosen program.
