[osiris1503]

can a computer science graduate be a software engineer?

[superengineer99]

@osiris1503 Anyone with a good backgrounds in Maths/Science background can enrol in our Master of Engineering (Software)

[nepalihercules]

@superengineer99 so u don't need to have programming background? just maths/science is enough?

[superengineer99]

@nepalihercules Entry requirements for the Melbourne School of Engineering's Professional Master of Engineering (Software):

Students graduating from any (minimum 3-year) degree program who have completed the equivalent of 25 points of first-year mathematics (any) and 25 points of computing, computer science, or programming (or equivalent) may be admitted to the Master of Engineering (Software).

Credit for prior studies are available.

I'm earning a degree in computer science and electrical engineering. Two bachlors then ima try to get into MIT for grad school

[iJesterXD]

what bachelor would be the best choice to get into software engineering at melbourne?

[ElementalDearth]

@pufixas I learned C++ when I was 10. It's kind of hard to get into at first, but becomes much easier. I learned mostly by making patches for jtagged xbox's.

@wowwow180 Around my area, there are a lot of jobs in software engineering open which have to do with computer science and engineering. They pay pretty well also. You really need to want to do it though.

[SEOandPositioning]

MCA is equivalent to ME (Computer Science and Engineering)

MCA with B.Sc. (Computer Science) background is equivalent to ME (Computer Science and Engineering).

B.Sc. Computer Science (3 Yrs) + MCA (3 Yrs) = 6 Years.

BE Computer Science (4 Yrs) + ME (2Yrs) = 6 Years.

MCA and ME both are equal.

Companies giving equal priority to both MCA and ME.

Master of Computer Applications MCA and Master of Engineering ME, are treated Same for jobs and there is no difference in the competence ratings.

@wowwow180

well not only india put other countries too the us is really fucked up cuz off people like Zhanenhulk up there ^

[pampauful]

course for engineering and computer science is about what???

am i gonna study about software engineering or computer science...?

please do help me....

[Galaxiebaker]

When I major in this, will I have to pay over $1010101101 in debt and it's like majoring in geology, Latin, or dance? I feel like I will have to jump into the pre-med. Sucks.

[wowwow180]

I keep hearing that Computer science is becoming outsourced because of India

is it really that bad in the US???

I looked it up online and everyone says different things

some say not to worry about it...others say to avoid CS
