Bachelor of Engineering in Software Engineering
About
Xiamen University's (XMU) software engineering program, established in 2002, is supported by the Software School, one of 35 national exemplary schools certified by China's Ministry of Education. The school collaborates on research and development with international IT companies such as Microsoft, IBM, BEA, Oracle, Sybase, Sun, and Dell.
Since its beginning, the program has successfully developed practical software engineering talent with a worldwide perspective. China's Ministry of Education has approved them as the "Innovative Area of Talent Training Mode" and "Excellent Engineer Training Programme." The software engineering" course has received high ratings from XMU, Fujian Province, and the Ministry of Education. Xiamen University Malaysia's software engineering program prepares graduates to design, develop, maintain, and manage computer and mobile application systems in a real-world setting, balancing theory and practice. In short, this degree prepares students to use modern technologies and programming languages effectively.
