ECSE is an abbreviation for Electrical Engineering and Computer science Computer Sciences and Systems theory Systems Engineering . It is a designation used at some University universities for the major or department that blends these three fields together. One reason behind linking the areas of study is to provide students with a broad overview of each of software , hardware and Systems theory . However there are also reasons for not blending departments Students who major in theoretical computer science, studying such topics as algorithm analysis and software engineering, may not have any use for extensive electrical engineering or systems theory classes. Fact date December 2008 Not every university uses the ECSE designation. Several universities, for example, have separate EE ECE and CS departments majors. Other schools use the similar Electrical and Computer Engineering ECE Electrical and Computer Engineering designation. Additionally, some schools which offer an ECSE degree also offer degrees in Electrical Engineering or Computer Science separately.

An external degree is a Academicdegreedegree offered by a university to students who have not been required to be physically present within the geographic territory of the institution. These undergraduates may be called external students and may study at classes unconnected with the university, or independently, or by distance learning . They may obtain the degree by passing examinations once they have reached the required standard, or by having successfully completed a programme put together from various courses or modules. In 1858 the University of London became the first English university to offer external degrees, holding exams open to people in other cities, or to London students who had attended evening classes. In various UK towns university college s were established, where students could study towards a London external degree. The colleges were among the approved centres for London s exams. Soon centres overseas were approved, starting with one in Mauritius in 1865.
