Program Overview

Software engineering is a form of engineering that applies the principles of computer science and mathematics in achieving economically effective solutions for software problems. Software has become an important component in business decisions and the foundation of scientific research and engineering problem solving. The motif behind organizing the Software Engineering study program lies in the fact that we live in an era of automation, intense development of information and communication technologies, as well as a time when the fundamental challenges have become "higher quality and lower software expenses".

The curriculum of the Software Engineering study program is harmonized with the Bologna education system and the B&H national framework of qualification. Through a large variety of elective courses, students of this program have the possibility to get themselves acquainted with the contents of other scientific fields that are studied at IUS, enabling a horizontal mobility of students. Its international aspect, which primarily means its realization in English language, as well as a modern study program with harmonized relevant domestic and foreign criteria as an outcome of learning is what makes the proposed Software Engineering study program distinct.
