Overview
Software Engineering BSc sits in a competitive part of the UK market, which works in your favour once you know which departments to aim at. It is a 3 years undergraduate degree, with the specialism widening as you move through the years.
Teaching in Software Engineering moves from fundamentals into a specialism you pick partway through. We currently work with 32 universities on this course across 26 cities.
The lowest English requirement we hold on this course is IELTS 6.0, and departments asking more than that usually expect a stronger academic record too. Tuition ranges from £17.000 to £35.000 a year depending on the department, which is a real difference over the length of the course.
The fastest way to narrow this down is to send us your grades and English score. We will come back with a shortlist rather than a brochure.
