Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering

The program in computer engineering provides a solid mathematics, basic science, and engineering science base that is common to all quality engineering programs. It emphasizes the theory and design of both hardware and software systems. Modern methodology for the design and verification of reliable, maintainable, real time software is studied. Techniques for the design, breadboarding, testing, and implementation of computer hardware are stressed. The program allows a wide range of electives to strengthen individual specialties in theory, design, and/or applications. The graduate of this computer engineering program is prepared to supervise, design, and implement computer-imbedded systems employing hardware, software, and firmware.

We offer 5 degree concentration options for the Bachelor of Science program; Click on the options below to see Checksheets and /Model Programs.

  • General Computer Engineering
    • Communications
      Prepares students with the fundamental knowledge and practical skills in data communication and networking through a series of introductory and advanced courses, labs and a senior design project focusing on are computer communication and network system design. Specific topics include communication system components, embedded software, network programming, network protocol, Internet, LAN, Personal Area Network, Wireless Network, Mobile Computing, Distributed Computing and systems, and communication performance assessment.
    • Control
      Learn techniques required to develop and build sophisticated and integrated system control devices. Focus on building devices that manage operations of systems such as building thermostats, automotive cruise control and fuel management.

     

  • Wireless Architecture
    This package is centered in how to develop computer systems. The required courses provide a solid background in both computer hardware and system software. The technical elective courses focus on Embedded System Design and Computer Hardware engineering.

     

  • Wireless Software
    This package contains courses that focus on software aspects of computer systems. Courses in object-oriented programming, distributed computing, and security are broadly applicable across all computer software. Application-oriented courses in graphics, database systems, and simulation provide the skills needed to support many different software applications. Interested students can also study algorithms for bioinformatics. These courses allow a student to tailor their degree with an emphasis on software issues of importance in today's computer systems.
