WelcomeWelcome
Software engineering goes well beyond computer
systems; software is an integral part of almost all
systems. Automobiles, for example, now have a hundred
million lines of computer code running everything from the
brakes to the radio. Software engineers need first-class
instruction to prepare for the demands of an ever-changingtechnological world. After offering the masters degree
at the Penn State Great Valley campus for more than 10
years and at the Philadelphia Naval Shipyard since 2008,
the online masters degree now gives us the opportunity to
reach working professionals around the globe.
