Undergraduate: Computer Engineering
 

 

B.S. in Computer Engineering

The computer engineering program combines the best of both worlds: electronic system hardware design with computer software design. Computer engineers design and construct very large scale integrated (VLSI) circuits on chips, design embedded systems and integrate computing devices into networks. Students learn how to use the computer to control complex electrical systems and how to interface electronic components with computers. Examples of concepts and applications that computer engineers deal with are:

  • Embedded systems, such as MP3 and other digital audio players.
  • Computer vision with applications in digital photography and medical imaging. etc.
  • Local area networks (LANs).
  • Design microprocessors, such as your Pentium.

Students work on projects in modern, well-equipped VLSI and computer engineering laboratories. The senior project course involves students in the design and fabrication of a large-scale digital system based on their area of interest.
