Master of Science IN
Software Engineering
WVU's software engineering programs are unique, fully online programs that provide
graduate-level software engineering expertise to individuals who are currently
working in the software engineering and information technology industry. The programs
serve both adult learners from the regional software engineering and information
technology industry as well as distant learners taking the course from remote locations.
Our typical student is a full-time software engineering professional who wishes
to augment his or her work experience with additional academic enrichment.
Statler College offers two programs at WVU—a
Master of Science in Software Engineering, consisting of five core
courses that cover the five pillars of the software engineering life cycle and
five to six advanced electives depending on the option selected (course work
only, problem report or thesis), and a
Graduate Certificate in Software Engineering, consisting of the same five
core courses as the Master’s of Science in Software Engineering and a certificate
paper. The courses for the certificate program will be available using the WVU
eCampus platform. Once the Graduate Certificate is completed, the learner may apply to the
MSSE.
The Master of Science in Software Engineering
program is offered through West Virginia University and hosted online through Coursera’s learning platform beginning Summer 2023.
