B.S. in Computer Engineering

Computer engineering drives technological advancements of computer systems that impact nearly every aspect of the current digital world. These advancements include the development of smartphones, the internet, home electronics, electric and autonomous vehicles, WiFi, video games and much more. The Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering provides you with a comprehensive understanding of hardware and software components of computers and computer-based systems. You’ll then delve deeper into specific specialty areas such as digital design, machine learning, artificial intelligence, robotics or computer networks. You’ll finish the program with the capstone course, “senior design project,” where teams design solutions to challenging real-world problems. After graduating from this program, you’re equipped to pursue careers in areas such as microprocessor design, network engineering, hardware-software integration, software engineering, embedded system development, robotics and more. The demand for computer engineers is high, with job growth projected across various sectors. As an ABET accredited program, this course of study provides students assurance that it meets the quality standards of the profession.

Students should have graduated from an approved or accredited high school or have earned a high school equivalency certificate or G.E.D. The high school course units should include the following: 4 units in English, emphasizing grammar, composition and literature; 4 units in mathematics, including Algebra I, Algebra II and geometry, and a higher level mathematics course for which Algebra II is a prerequisite; 2 units in social studies, including one unit in U.S. history; and 3 units in science, including at least one unit in a life or biological science (e.g., biology), at least one unit in a physical science (e.g., chemistry, physics, physical science), and at least one laboratory course; two additional academic units of English, Mathematics, science, social studies, world languages or computer science.
