Computer engineers design computer hardware (from chips to servers), communication and network systems, and the smart digital devices that continue to revolutionize how we live and work. They also write the software to run these systems, constantly innovating to improve performance to meet our growing technological needs. They are at the forefront of cybersecurity, machine intelligence, networking, embedded systems, and robotics. They are proficient in both electrical engineering and computer science and are employed in every industry or field that requires computer hardware. The Computer Engineering concentration shares much of the core with the other engineering programs, but is structured to include more courses in computer science and a somewhat different emphasis in mathematics. |
