1. In the direction of employment, students majoring in software engineering can engage in office automation processing, computer installation and maintenance, web page making, computer network and professional server maintenance management and development.

2. From the perspective of employment prospects, China's software industry is in the development stage, and there is still a certain gap compared with large-scale industrial production, but the demand for senior technicians with practical experience is still great.

The main graduation destinations of software engineering students are computer software professional companies, information consulting companies, and other wholly-owned and joint ventures such as finance.

Training objectives of software engineering specialty

High-quality professional and technical personnel who can expand their abilities through continuing education or other lifelong learning, understand and keep up with the development of disciplines and specialties, and have employment competitiveness in the research, development, deployment and application of computing systems.

Meaning:

At present, the scale of China's software industry is not very large, and some software enterprises only adopt some software engineering ideas in software production, which is still far from large-scale industrial production. The reasons are management system problems, market problems, policy problems, and incomplete and imperfect software engineering theory.
