BEng Software Engineering - 1st Class Honours
Sheffield Hallam University
2017 – 2021
1st year - 78% overall
2nd year - 74% overall
3rd year - 80% overall
The course covered all aspects of software engineering including, but not limited to: Web and Mobile development, Project Management, Database Systems, Software Testing, Project Planning and System Design. I have several projects to evidence my competence in these fields.
I initially started university with
no software development experience whatsoever but through sheer hard work and determination managed to
achieve a high first across all my years of study which i consider to be on of my greatest achievements.
I was also a course rep meaning I had regular catch up meetings with my course leader to feedback my
opinions on the course and discuss potential improvements. In line with my responsibilities, I spoke
to the other students on the course and put together a comprehensive list of topics that they
would like me to raise at the regular meeting.
Whilst at Sheffield Hallam I also started the Programming Society which I was President of for one year. This involved planning fun interactive learning sessions for students on any course wanting to learn more about programming. I particularly enjoyed the teaching aspect of this and being able to pass on my knowledge to others whilst also learning new things myself.
