About B.Tech - Software Engineering

Software engineering is one of the most popular branches of computer science and has taken over the world in the digitization era. Software engineers are required in almost every field these days. With the easy accessibility of computers and smartphones, the importance of software engineering has become more pronounced.

Software engineering is a branch of computer science engineering (CSE), therefore, there are very few colleges that offer software engineering bachelor degree. Most of the institutes in India provide software engineering specialization at the masters’ level. M.Tech in software engineering is one of the most popular courses amongst computer science engineers. You can prepare for GATE exam and apply for these courses through GATE score.

The courses cover advanced software development models and programming concepts that are the elementary parts of developing software. Software engineering also comprises the study of the different levels of the software development process.
