what is software engineering?
it simply means the systematic application of scientific and technological knowledge, through the medium of sound engineering principles, to the production of computer programs, and to the requirements definition, functional specification, design description, program implementation, and test methods that lead up to this code.
Basically, software engineer means its a person who designs and programs system-level software, such as operating systems, database management systems (DBMSs) and embedded systems. The title is often used for programmers in the software industry who create commercial software packages, whether they be system level or application level. "Software engineer," "systems programmer" and "systems engineer" titles are often synonymous.
different countries have different values of salaries. for example, In Southern California, for 2007, software engineer holding a BSEE or BSCE, non-manager position earns:
Out of school: 60-65 K / year.
3-8 years experience: 75-90K / year.
Principal/Senior: 100 -120K /year.
Expert: 140K /year.
Big companies pay much more than small companies.
An engineer that is expertise in narrow field earn more than one who is a general programmer.
whereas in singapore they are paid lesser.
therefore, i chose software engineering as my career because it has a wider range of job recruitment, highly paid, it matches my interest and its highly needed in future.
