Software Engineering

Hello, I couldn’t see a thread for this so I decided to post one.

Is anybody considering studying software engineering at Strathclyde this year? I have an offer and it would be nice to talk to others who are considering it.

It’s a software engineering graduate apprenticeship with Barclays, I think it’s University of Glasgow they work with for that. Supposed to hear back on Monday but if I don’t get that then I’ll be going to Strathclyde.

Unfortunately I only received reserve offers from my apprenticeship applications however that means I have accepted a conditional offer to study Software Engineering at Strathclyde :smile:

Yeah of course, mine are a little different because I'm currently at college, but here's what I have:

HND Computing: Software Development - Not achieved yet
HNC Computing - A
Higher Computing Science - A
Higher NPA Software Development - Pass
Higher NPA Cyber Security - Pass
Higher English - C
National 5 Mathematics - B

I need to obtain an A in the graded unit for my HND and I also need to pass the mathematics summer school to get on the course

Those are pretty good conditions to be working towards, I don't know you, but I believe you can get them 😜

Hi! Glad to see you're considering Software Engineering at Strath. I'm just finishing up my placement, about to head into my final year, so if there's any questions you have about the course I'd be happy to answer. I've really enjoyed it so far, and I've heard good things about the final year :smile:

Congratulations, really glad to hear that!

I got some good news, was offered apprenticeship positions after being made only reserve offers from both JP Morgan and Barclays so I won’t be on this course unfortunately
