The Department of Computer Science offers two majors for the program of

Bachelor of Science in Engineering:
- Major in Software Engineering

- Mejor in Computing and Information Systems

Major in Software Engineering

This Major develops the ability to design, build and implement innovative software components, applications and systems to solve industry 's complex problems.

The Major aims to prepare its graduates to become main players of the most important challenges of the XXI century, such as social networks, health, education, city planning, robotics, astronomy, networks of companies, finances, marketing and optimization.In all these domains the software component has become fundamental and, often, the only enabler of significant advances and innovative solutions.

The program graduates will be able to work as researchers, developers or project managers, modeling complex problems, and designing, producing and/or operating software, contributing and innovating in several domains, both in industry and academy.

Program Educational Objectives for the Software Engineering program:

1. Our graduates will perform in the field of Software Engineering and Computing in a competent and professional manner, demonstrating a thorough knowledge of the underlying principles of software engineering.
2. Our graduates will develop innovative technological projects in Chile and/or abroad, generating solutions to complex systems problems.
3. Our graduates will demonstrate a self-critical spirit and will enrich their performance through professional and/or graduate studies.
4. Our graduates will participate and collaborate in interdisciplinary and diverse teams, and will advance in leadership in the profession.
5. Our graduates will strive to have a positive economic and social impact on society.

Student Outcomes of the Software Engineering program:

1. An ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics.
2. An ability to apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors.
3. An ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences.
4. An ability to recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts.
5. An ability to function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives.
6. An ability to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions.
7. An ability to acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies.
