How Our Software Listings Work

To speed your search, we’ve divided our software program listings into practical categories:

• Programs: On-campus program listings and online program listings in software engineering are organized by level of learning, from associate degrees all the way up to PhD programs. Select your preferred delivery style!
• States: State listings contain every software engineering program we could find in your local area. If you’re interested in big tech states like California, you can also discover what’s available farther afield.

It’s important to note that colleges & universities do not pay to be included in our standard listings. You’re at liberty to decide what software program works best for you.

However, schools are allowed to advertise their software engineering degrees for a small referral fee. They are listed as “Featured Schools” with an “Advertisement” label.
