Welcome to the Department of Systems and Software Engineering!

This webpage is under rework due to reorganization.
The information here is valid until further notice and a webpage for the School of Information and Communication Technology will be up shortly. 

The Department of Systems and Software Engineering (APS), (Avdelningen för Programvarusystem in Swedish) is part of the School of Engineering at Blekinge Institute of Technology.

The Department of Systems and Software Engineering (APS) deals with research and education in the following areas: Software Engineering, Computer Systems Engineering, and Intelligent Systems. The department primarily performs research in the intersection between software and systems, i.e. the key challenge is to contribute to the field of software-intensive systems. Most of the research is conducted in close cooperation with industry to ensure high industrial relevance.
