计算机科学理学学士-软件工程

软件工程集中强调以系统，受控和有效的方式生产和维护高质量软件的方法。它结合了计算机科学和与工程更紧密相关的主题，例如质量保证，项目计划和经济平衡。除了所有BSCS学生都需要的软件工程I和II外，集中课程还包括软件质量保证，软件项目管理和工程经济学方面的课程。自1968年在北约软件工程大会上首次对软件工程作为一门学科进行正式的正式讨论以来，已有35年的历史[Naur 69]。“软件工程”一词现已在工业，政府和学术界广泛使用：成千上万的计算专业人员被冠以“软件工程师”的称号，众多出版物，团体和组织以及专业人士
The Software Engineering Concentration emphasizes the methods used to produce and maintain high-quality software in a systematic, controlled, and efficient manner. It combines computer science with topics more closely associated with engineering, such as quality assurance, project planning, and economic tradeoffs. In addition to Software Engineering I and II, which are required of all B.S.C.S. students, the concentration includes courses in software quality assurance, software project management, and engineering economics. It has been over thirty-five years since the first organized, formal discussion of software engineering as a discipline took place at the 1968 NATO Conference on Software Engineering [Naur 69]. The term ‘software engineering' is now widely used in industry, government, and academia: hundreds of thousands of computing professionals go by the title ‘software engineer', numerous publications, groups and organizations, and professional conferences use the term software engineering. However, there are still disagreements and differences of opinion about the meaning of the term. The following definitions provide several views of the meaning and nature of software engineering. Nevertheless, they all possess a common thread, which states, or strongly implies that software engineering is more than just coding – it includes quality, schedule and economics, and the knowledge and application of principles and discipline.
