Hi Everybody.

I'm doing my graduation in Computer Science and Engineering. I was hoping if you guys could suggest me some good books on Software Engineering, Object Technology, and UML.

Thanks!

The Art of Unix Programming

These aren't technology specific, but provide great principles that any software engineer would benefit from learning.

Thanks. But I need text/reference books specifically on these topics for further clarification of my concepts.

I agree with matthew with 'The Pragmatic Programmer' and 'The Art of Unix Programming', plus I'd suggest these:
- Beautiful Code - http://oreilly.com/catalog/9780596510046
- Mythical Man Month - http://my.safaribooksonline.com/0201835959
- The Cathedral and the Bazaar - http://books.google.com/books?id=F6qgFtLwpJgC
- Dreaming In Code - http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000PDZFOI
