  • For many years, software engineering has been trying to be a software engineering profession. This was hampered by the common perception that it is merely the application of computer science. The goal of making software engineering into its own profession spurred a great deal of debate about what it means to be a profession. Currently, software engineering has been granted the distinction of being a designated professional engineering discipline in Texas, in the US, Australia(since 2001), and many provinces in Canada. To claim to be a profession, software engineering needs to be widely recognized as such. Such things are having undergraduate degrees, licences that are recognized by state governments, their own codes of ethics, and so on are symbols of that recognition.
