Pakistan's educational landscape is a well-developed one, with a myriad of educational institutes offering all levels of quality education in a number of academic fields. However, one programme that has only recently begun gaining traction and popularity with students is software engineering. As characterized by the uptick in enrollment numbers across universities and colleges in Pakistan, software engineering is the new venue for excellence; where students hone their computational skills to benefit from the world's ever-increasing reliance on information technology. To get to the top of this soon-to-be-saturated field, an academic distinction is imperative, one that a top-tier international college like Beaconhouse International College can provide with its BSc in Software Engineering.
In this blog post, we'll take you through the particulars of the BSc Software Engineering programme offered by Beaconhouse International College, and we'll explain why this Liverpool John Moores University (LJMU)-affiliated programme is the perfect recipe for excellence in an age of computer and IT boom
With the popularity and the utility of a software engineering degree and skillset at an all-time high, its no wonder that students adept with computers and who understand the fundamentals of coding are now flocking to institutions offering qualifications in software engineering. As interesting and useful as the subject matter is, much of what constitutes a high-paying and meaningful employment today relates to software development and engineering. Which is why, Beaconhouse International College and LJMU has taken special considerations of professional development and skill acquisition while developing the coursework for BSc Software Engineering. While enrolled in the degree programme, students will delve deeper into the many facets of software development and engineering, some of which are discussed and explained below.
User experience or UX is fundamental to design; whether it's a good website, a good application or even a good game. User experience translates into usability and utility of the resource, which is a skillset that is valued and is placed extremely high when in a professional environment. Which is why, Beaconhouse International College has taken exceptional care in crafting an all-inclusive course that firstly educates students on the principles of UX design, and then incorporates the best practices to further hone these skills.
Programming is central to software engineering and development; it is essentially the skill that allows a professional to write code that runs great software. At the core of everything about software is programming. Since it is a basic course, students will delve into coursework as well as practical applications, including the learning of various coding and programming languages, techniques and approaches as well as applying the academic theories and explanations on real-life projects.
Central to the theme of software engineering and development are the principles which each and every programmer and software developer needs to understand in order to master the basics and proceed onto the complicated architecture of software development. These principles are taught and explained in detail to students, who will then be able to utilize these principles and integrate them in their professional endeavours effectively, allowing them to fully utilize their academic insights into a fruitful career that takes them miles ahead of the competition.
Web development is all the rage nowadays; from e-commerce to entertainment, each and every aspect of our being has been digitalized, and the basic unit of digitalization is the humble website. However, understanding the basics of how to build a website can be rather tricky. This course aims to dispel the notion that web development is tricky as it breaks down the basics of web development and educates students on the principles of web development, including languages and models. Then, with a practical aspect to web development, students can unleash both their training and their creativity as they proceed in the field.
Always in tune with the times, it is the exceptional software developers and engineers of today who are shaping up our future. And in the future, the same professionals will be able to shape the entire pathway of humanity. In contemporary software engineering, both virtualization and cloud computing are cutting-edge new fields, promising a world of utility and efficiency. Students will be able to understand the basic ideals behind the two, and will have the opportunity to further double down and develop exclusive skills for both sub-sectors of software engineering.
With an LJMU-accredited degree in your hand and a polished skillset on in-demand skills like web development, UX design and data science proficiency, students will be able to forge a career path for themselves that keeps them on the blazing path to success in whatever field they choose to excel in
Education serves as a catalyst for positive change in an individual's life, and the better and high-quality the education, the more fruitful a life is for oneself and for others around us. Which is why, Beaconhouse International College accentuates the Beaconhouse commitment of academic excellence and fidelity by partnering with prestigious institutes of higher learning like LJMU, UoL (University of London) and Kings College London to provide students with premier options for education. Whether it's a career in academia, government/ public sector or the private sector, students will be able to contribute positively to the world around them with a quality education from Beaconhouse International College.
