Bachelor's Degree in Software Engineering in Malaysia
A bachelor's degree in software engineering covers programming, software design, testing and the management of software projects, usually with team projects along the way. The courses below differ in their focus and in how much mathematics they expect. Compare them by university, duration and tuition.
A bachelor's degree is the main undergraduate qualification. It is longer than a diploma and goes into the subject in more depth, and it is the usual entry point for a master's degree.
Entry normally needs a school-leaving qualification, a foundation course or a diploma, as the entry requirements on each course page say.
