This is an international software engineering programme that is aimed at students who aim to pursue a software engineering or computer science career in China or abroad. The programme is delivered by an international team through English, resulting in a western educational culture that offers an alternative to the environment that students typically experience in Chinese universities. We value logical thinkers and problem solvers, and these skills are encouraged throughout the degree programme. We aim to provide a collaborative learning environment with approachable international staff. In addition to traditional lectures, the curriculum is also delivered via tutorials, interactive laboratory sessions and through online engagement. The programme has a strong focus on learning by doing, through group and individual projects and lab work. 

1 - Demonstrate understanding of the theory and fundamental principles of Computer Science and Software Engineering.
2 - Design and Create large-scale software systems, working within established software development methodologies.
3 - Design appropriate software architectures in accordance with enumerated requirements and constraints.
4 - Demonstrate awareness of issues surrounding the profession of Software Engineering.
5 - Demonstrate a mastery in the design of algorithms; solving problems the rough the application of mathematical and engineering principles.
6 - Implement computer programs in a variety of programming languages.
7 - Analyse and reason about computer programs.
8 - Create appropriate representations of software architectures, and communicate these to technical and non-technical audience.
9 - Be comfortable working either individually or in a team environment.
10 - Engage in self-directed professional development though personal research
11 - Present and articulate technical material through English.
