UNSW的软件工程是什么？
A软件工程学士学位是UNSW工程课程学士学位的新成员之一— a 4 year degree with a compulsory Honours component included in the fourth year.While your first year might be pretty much exactly the same as any other Engineering student’s, from your second year onwards you’ll be dealing with some complex software principles那Civil Engineerscould never even dream of!
If you’re considering this program, you probably already know that您的学习重点将是软件开发。这thing about Software Engineering at UNSW is that it will teach you much more than how to code —它将为您提供专门针对该行业的整体技能。
Not only will you learn如何开发有效的软件系统，但您也会了解project management strategies and design techniques。With this set of skills, you’ll be able to breeze through a development project from implementation to testing and finally documentation.
该学位具有现实世界的重点you’ll actually be making your own projects as if you were employed as a software engineer.这是如此实用，以至于您甚至有机会构架遗产之前就可以为这个庞大的增长行业做好准备 - 这使我们进入了下一个观点。
Honours
UNSW Software Engineering also has an Honours unit built into it. This means thatyou’ll finish off your degree with Honours without even really thinking about it— a little heads up though, degrees with Honours programs have stricter progression rules than other degrees.
Students that fail more than two core subjects, and/or have a WAM (UNSW’s grade point average) lower than 50% by the time they reach their final year will not be able to continue through the course.
这个学位将带您去哪里？
这不是秘密Software Engineering and the IT industry in general boast high job security and job growth overall。只是问Linkedin他声称技术工作将在2020年占据主导地位，而“巨大的增长”。
在他们的2020年澳大利亚新兴工作报告,Software Engineering jobs take up almost half of the top 15 jobs。To give you an even better idea of where you could end up, here’s just a few careers that you could pursue after graduation:
-
- UX/UI设计
- IT consultancy
- 数据工程
- 站点可靠性工程
- Robotics Engineering (Software)
- Front-end Development
- Back-end Development
- 全栈开发
Realistically, you could branch into almost any tech job— the skills that you gain from a Bachelor of Software Engineering are easily translatable.Furthermore,having a foundation in software systems, design and mathematics means that it wouldn’t be hard for you to up-skill and enter another tech jobwithout having to go back to uni (sounds good to me!).
Core Units and Majors
这是关于UNSW Engineering的单身汉课程的事情 -the degrees themselves are specialisations.这基本上意味着电气工程学士是具有电气工程专业的工程学士学位。现在这有点嘴。
Anyway, if you put 2 and 2 together (c’mon you’re meant to be good at Maths), you’ll see that该程序等同于软件工程专业的专业。Essentially your whole course will be built of core units (roughly 85%) that are compulsory for your Major.
What can you expect from each year of study?
I know what you’re thinking, “If there are no majors, can we choose what we study?” Well, yes and no.It’s true that the degree is super regimented with very little room for electives but that doesn’t mean there aren’t any。You’ll get a few Software-Engineering-related electives as you progress further throughout the degree.
Using these electives, you canexplore courses in Computer Science, Telecommunications, IT and more.Some people simply use these to explore other areas of interest, while others might use it to complement their program and develop a minor of sorts.
First Year
Your first year is going to be very general.It’s going to involve Maths, Data Structures, Maths, Engineering Design, oh and did I mention Maths?
This year is designed togive you a good foundation for any subject you might later encounter.For someone more interested in design, this year might seem a little tedious — but trust me, it will help a lot in the long run.
第二年
在这里，事情变得更加精简，您可以远离其他工程学校。在说话，少一点数学和更多的软件构建，数据库系统和大量编程。Aka the good stuff.
第三年
Things will start to get a little bit more autonomous in third year —you’ll be doing more Software Engineering Workshops and Software System design, but you’ll also be introduced to your electives。You might also decide to do your Industrial Training while you’re here (more on that later).
Fourth Year
Now we’re at peak autonomy —this is where you’ll start your Honours thesis and continue through your courses (which will be primarily electives)。今年确实是您所做的。在这里，您可以合并所获得的所有技能，并将其放入论文中，并探索感兴趣的领域。
工业培训是什么?
Industrial Training (IT) is the course equivalent of an internship/practical training.它使您有机会将您在UNI学到的技能运用到现实世界中。
至少60天gradu是必需的ate from this program.您通常会在第三年开始安排最好不要太早开始安排，因为您将没有足够的工程经验and if you leave it too late, you’ll already be stressing about your Honours thesis.
关于它的另一个超级酷的事情是，可以研究州际公路或海外！
这UNSW School of Engineering has set up this有用的指南这包括您需要了解的有关如何促进其IT的所有重要信息，where to do it and what requirements need to be met before commencing it.
How to Get into Software Engineering at UNSW
An ATAR of 91 will grant you guaranteed entry into the course.2020年进入的绝对最低ATAR得分是88，因此最适合90年代的目标。
Otherwise,UNSW的工程学院招生计划（FEAS）提供替代的入境途径对于不符合保证进入要求的学生。

Are there any prerequisite subjects or assumed knowledge?
Due to the intense focus on Maths (especially in the first year) it goes without saying that students will have assumed knowledge in the subject.It’s assumed that students will have taken at least HSC Mathematics 1或获得等效知识。
奖学金
UNSW提供各种奖学金，每年和研究领域。可以找到这些奖学金的清单这里！
What’s the Teaching Format?
You might have already heard butUNSW于2019年从学期系统过渡到孕期。这意味着您将学习3（在某些情况下取决于课程可用性）每个学术课程。
Class Structure
Software Engineering courses are built up oflectures and combined lab and tutorial sessions.
讲座进行2个小时，而合并的实验室和教程会议将进行3。这意味着您每周大约有15个接触时间（尽管您的选修课可能会有所不同）。
讲座
这se fun little sessions are where all of the content is introduced。讲座中充满了课程中的所有人，因此很可能have around 200 people present.
You might find the classrooms to be a little more populated in the first year because the entire Engineering cohort (rather than just Software students) will be enrolled, so expect something around 600.讲座期间几乎零同伴互动，您将使用时间只听。
演讲中讨论的内容将取决于该主题。If it were a data structures and algorithms class, for example, this would be where you would learn to code a specific algorithm, which you would then put into practice during the tutorial/lab session.
Tutorials/Lab Sessions
这se sessions start with the tutorial component — the tutorial half of the class is primarily reserved for consolidation.You’ll go over what was introduced in the lecture and dive deeper into the content.
教程更加亲密只有20个人在场。This class size willmake it easier to ask questions so you can really make sure you understand the content.
After the tutorial, the lab section of the class will start —the lab section is where you really get a chance to put the theories and algorithms to work.
实验室超越了简单的理解活动，他们涉及实际实施和与内容的互动。在这里，您实际上将尝试编码演讲中介绍的算法。
Assessments
Most programming subjects have a generalised assessment schedule.当然，这会有所不同，但是作为一般规则，您可以期待这样的事情：
- 作业1
- Midterm exam
- 作业2
- Final exam
作业很可能是projects based on real-world applications.This means you’ll be given a task and you’ll have to create an application based on that context —you could perhaps create a database for a movie review website, design an email software or create your own blog，您也可以用作日志（这本身就是作业）。
Exams will be separated by a practical and theoretical component.理论组成部分将占考试的40％ - 问题将纯粹基于讲座内容。其余60％保留给实用组件，这可能会让您编写代码或算法。
您会发展什么技能？
It goes without saying that a Bachelor of Software Engineering will develop some intense technical skills. After spending years of going through projects from beginning to end,you’ll know everything there is to know about the successful deployment and upkeep of a functional software system.
从阅读和写作C，Java和Python，以了解诸如瀑布之类的一系列发展方法，您将成为总理程序员。
You’ll also go on to develop some other soft skills that are super relevant for the workplace, such as有效的协作和项目管理。More importantly you’ll learn how to think like a programmer — you’ll know how to make almost anything as efficient as it possibly can be, and no, we don’t only mean software.
What’s the Faculty and Culture Like?
计算机科学与工程（CSE）教师充满了许多真正的很棒的人 -you’ll find that everyone is really passionate about what they do。这re’s also a lot of creative people that are super fun to pick brains with.
这culture of the cohort is anything but competitive.Everyone wants to help each other out and are always willing to share notes on group chats, as well as work together through any algorithm problem you’re struggling with.
CSEsociety
这CSEsociety (CSEsoc) is super active, even more so than the faculty itself.
这y organisementorship programs for both new and old students。这newer students are paired with older students for academic guidance, while the年龄较大的学生与专业人士配对这将进行模拟面试，帮助找到实习并帮助爵士乐履历。
这Society also holds plenty of networking and social events.这些事件是结识新朋友的好方法，同时也可以在行业中获得一些宝贵的联系。

Women in Engineering
这first thing you’ll probably notice when you step foot in your first lecture theatre is that the classes are, for the most part, male-saturated. Though this is starting to change —UNSW Engineering has a Support Network for women called Women in Engineering (WIE).
WIE holds a range of events for Women in the faculty.他们也provide support both academically and socially.这y evenprovide a mentoring service that is specifically catered to womenwho are looking to work in the industry.
