MSSE 600: Object-Oriented Software Engineering
Using Agile software development processes, the Software Engineering Body of Knowledge and Unified Modeling Language are introduced to design object-oriented software systems.
Software Engineering
Master of Science
Design and implement the future as a software engineer.
Software engineers are needed in virtually every industry at every level. It’s much more than designing and developing applications. As our machines, homes and cities become more equipped with sensors, transmitters and communication systems, software engineers help us connect the dots in fun and creative ways.
The M.S. in Software Engineering at Regis educates students on the various disciplines associated with modern software engineering. You’ll gain an advanced understanding of programming languages such as Java™, C# and Swift, JavaScript, HTML, and CSS, as well as knowledge of the specification, architecture, design, implementation, testing and security of both desktop and mobile applications.

Software Engineering Career Paths
Software Engineer
Software engineers aim to solve business problems by desinging, developing and installing software and information systems, as well as studying user experience and work processes.
Software Developer
Software Developers are responsible for the creation and testing of computer software and applications. Software Developers should expect to monitor the performance of systems and implement new features.
Mobile App Developer
Mobile App Developers are responsible for writing and maintaning code to develop mobile applications. After creating code, Mobile App Developers should expect to test the application on mobile devices.
Full Stack Developer
Full Stack Developers are computer programmers who are skilled in front and back end coding. Responsibilites of a Full Stack Developer are coding, creating user interaction tools on website and building servers for websites.
Application Developer
Application Developers are responsible for designing and coding programs and applications, and usually specialize in one field of application development. A few examples of specializations are phone applications, accounting and graphic software.
Embedded Systems Developer
Embedded System Developers are responsible for creating and implementing software for embedded devices and systems. Additional tasks include coding, debugging software and analyzing pre-existing software to ensure it is running smoothly.
