Software Engineering Master Prerequisites

C

Hello!

I have a Masters degree in Transport Engineering but I would like to obtain one in Software Engineering / Computer Science / Informatics / Information Technology.

Do you know any Universities or Colleges that don't have a prerequisite of a Batchelor degree in related field of study but accept people with any Engineering degree?

Hi Ciavil , which country are you interested in? Here in the UK there are a few masters "conversion course" in software/comp sci available where you don't need a comp sci background.

As an example -

Thank you!

I've been mostly interested in Canada, Australia and Germany (but only the courses taught in English - I chose Germany because of the vicinity since I'm from Croatia). I haven't searched for anything in UK, but it is also an option.

I found something interesting called Graduate Diploma (an example: http://www.canberra.edu.au/courses/index.cfm?action=detail&courseid=843AA#GD%20IT).
If I understand correctly it would provide me with a way to get an education in a field of my choice (IT), and also allow me to move on to the Masters studies if I wish.

EDIT:

Here is also another example that follows the Graduate Certificate -> Graduate Diploma -> Master path
