Software Engineering is the study of how software is planned, built, tested, and maintained in an organized way. It covers the methods used to turn a problem or set of requirements into a working program, including how teams gather needs, design the system, choose a development process, and check that the result works as intended.
Software Engineering is delivered as a self-paced online course with video lessons, quizzes, an assignment, and a final exam. The grading breakdown is 20% Quizzes, 30% Assignment, and 50% Final Exam, so the course is structured around both practice and a cumulative assessment. After you complete it, the transcript can be sent to Thomas Edison State University, where it is recognized as CIS-2510 – Software Engineering, a named course equivalency.
The course builds practical skills in planning, testing, system analysis, and software design that are useful in many work settings, especially when projects need to be organized and requirements need to be turned into working solutions. At Thomas Edison State University, that learning can count as CIS-2510 – Software Engineering and fit into degree planning for programs such as the Associate of Arts or Bachelor of Arts. For students using TESU to finish a degree, it can support progress toward a program that accepts transfer credit within TESU’s broader transfer-friendly structure.
After you finish the course, the transcript is sent to Thomas Edison State University for review. TESU’s registrar applies the named equivalency CIS-2510 – Software Engineering, which means the credit is posted as a specific catalog course rather than a vague elective. That kind of recognition is useful when you are building a degree plan at TESU, because it gives you a clear place for the course in programs such as the Associate of Arts or Bachelor of Arts. TESU allows up to 90 credits, or 75%, to transfer, so this course can be part of a larger transfer strategy within that ceiling.
This course is a good fit for students who want a clear software engineering course that TESU recognizes by name as CIS-2510 – Software Engineering. It may suit degree completers, adults returning to school, or students who are planning carefully around TESU’s transfer limits of up to 90 credits. It is not the best choice for someone who needs a TESU course on campus or who is looking for a non-transfer option instead of a named equivalency.
Thomas Edison State University has one of the most flexible transfer policies in the country and accepts ACE & NCCRS credit recommendations. With a four-year institution's credits, you can fulfill all degree requirements except two required TESU courses.
Transfer credits are never guaranteed. Final credit awards are determined solely by the receiving university's registrar.
Enroll for $250 (or use a UPI Study subscription), finish in 28–30 days, and transfer 3 credits to Thomas Edison State University.
