<p>[UA</a> to offer begin offering concentration in software engineering | TuscaloosaNews.com](<a href=“http://www.tuscaloosanews.com/article/20130803/NEWS/130809948/1007?Title=UA-to-offer-begin-offering-concentration-in-software-engineering]UA”>http://www.tuscaloosanews.com/article/20130803/NEWS/130809948/1007?Title=UA-to-offer-begin-offering-concentration-in-software-engineering)</p>
<p>Will be offered to those majoring in Computer Engineering as a type of certification it seems.</p>
<p>*The new concentration will allow students earning a bachelor’s degree in computer science a formal way to earn recognition for software engineering expertise, according to the release. The software engineering concentration can be completed without increasing the hours needed for the degree.</p>
<p>The software engineering track consists of 12 hours of specialized coursework, focusing on a more in-depth knowledge about human-computer interaction, software design, project management, testing and quality assurance, maintenance, evolution and web-based systems, according to UA.*</p>
<p>I wonder if doing it this way allows for immediate ABET accreditation?</p>
<p>Thanks for the information. D2 might be interested in a computer degree at UA.</p>
