Drexel University's Master of Science in Software Engineering (MSSE) degree program was created in response to the growing importance of software to the national infrastructure and the rapid rise in demand for professional software engineers. The MSSE degree is a multidisciplinary University degree sponsored by the College of Engineering and the College of Information Science and Technology.

The MSSE program, drawing on the strengths of existing Drexel programs in computer science, engineering, and information science and technology, provides a curriculum that encompasses behavioral, managerial and technical aspects of software engineering and attempts to synthesize, rather than differentiate, disciplinary paradigms and themes.

The Information Science and Technology track supports students interested in applying software engineering to information systems problems in commercial organizations and other settings. The track places particular emphasis on systems values, such as the human-computer interface, front-end user requirements analysis, modeling and validation, and the use of off-the-shelf tools and components to assist in software processes.

TheIST track of the M.S.S.E. is available online as well as on campus.
