Part time MSc Programs in Technology Studies in Coral Gables USA 2023

Participants in the MS in Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) is open to both entry-level graduate students who want to pursue a career in electrical and computer engineering and professionals who have responsibilities in engineering or computer science fields and want to further their knowledge and skills. -

Software Engineering is concerned primarily with the systematic and disciplined approach to developing software systems. It requires the application of both computer engineering and computer science principles and practices to the creation, operation, and maintenance of software systems and applications. Software systems are becoming increasingly complex, and emerging technologies are pushing the boundaries of reusable components and software quality assurance. The growth of software use in all areas and aspects of everyday life has increased over the past decades and has now become an integral part of society. The reliance on software in critical areas including infrastructure, transportation, utilities, national security, and defense has resulted in the need for properly trained and motivated individuals. ACM along with IEEE, has also indicated in their Computing Curricula 2020 (Dec 31st. 2020), that there has also been a shift away from knowledge-based learning to competency-based learning. They define competency as a combination of Knowledge (know-what) + Skills (know-how) + Disposition (know-why). -

Advances in knowledge and an increasing concern for society with its complex needs have led researchers into areas that can no longer be encompassed by a single academic discipline. There is an increased tendency for faculty and students from different disciplines to work together in a variety of laboratories, departments, and centers that cut across disciplinary lines. In order to facilitate such interaction, highly qualified students may pursue a privileged course of graduate studies. The program is designed for the truly exceptional student. It is built around the student and brings together the particular interests of two or more disciplines. The ultimate goal is to develop a researcher who is neither over-specialized nor too much of a generalist. -
