Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering

In addition to traditional large computer applications, devices containing some form of embedded computing system are becoming pervasive in our society. Computer engineers design and develop hardware and software for all of these systems, ranging from software applications to communication networks to components in computing systems to small embedded sensors.Branches of computer engineering include:operating systemsembedded systems designdigital circuitsalgorithmssoftware designcomputer architectureImportant applications include:wired and wireless networkssimulationautomationdigital controlsensingroboticsapps and data managementOur comprehensive curriculum prepares students to identify, formulate and implement solutions to real-world technology problems. Students learn how to use modern computer engineering tools in well-equipped laboratories, with activities that reinforce the concepts learned in the classroom.The curriculum emphasizes design and teamwork and culminates in a capstone senior design project that integrates the material learned in earlier courses. Students graduate with a Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering.
