With technology constantly changing, software engineers are in high demand in the trending areas of artificial intelligence, embedded systems, robotics, virtual reality and big data.

Software engineers apply engineering principles and systematic methods to develop programs and operate data for computers and electronic equipment.

You will unite the theories and methods of computer science, engineering, and mathematics to create software applications, systems, hardware devices and telecommunication networks. You will also learn the important soft skills that are in-demand across industry, in order to effectively communicate across stakeholders, departments and teams. In this way, you not only learn the necessary technical proficiencies, you also gain the capability to lead within an organisation.

The common first year provides a chance to develop your passion in the fundamentals of engineering before deciding which specialisation – at RMIT in Vietnam or in Melbourne – to pursue from your second year onward.  You can also choose from a range of technical or business minors to expand your knowledge and explore your capabilities.
