计算工程理学学士

德州工程是美国第一个提供计算工程理学学士学位的计划，这是一个专注于建模和仿真以开发社会解决方案的新领域。在计算工程中，学生将学习将其在工程，科学和数学方面的知识应用于计算机算法的开发，这些算法会将对工程问题的数学和物理描述转换为计算机可以处理的语言–他们将学习如何使用和开发某些工具来解决使用计算机的物理问题。计算工程专业的毕业生在能源，制造，航空航天，医疗保健，微电子等多个领域从事职业。
The Bachelor of Science in Computational Engineering requires 122 semester credit hours (SCH) for completion. Many students can claim credit by exam for some B.S. COE degree requirements through AP, IB, and entrance exam scores. Computational engineering is a relatively new field in engineering that recognizes the increasing demand for advanced computational methods in engineering practice. Computational engineering in this context refers to the study and development of computer algorithms that translate mathematical and physical descriptions of engineering problems into languages and software that computers can process. This emphasis distinguishes computational engineering from computer science and computer engineering. Computational engineers must have basic knowledge of fundamental engineering and science, with more advanced knowledge of mathematics, algorithms and software engineering and design. Because of their extensive education in these disciplines, computational engineers can work in a variety of areas.<br>The objectives of the computational engineering degree program are to prepare students for professional practice in engineering, to prepare students for such post-baccalaureate study as their aptitudes and professional goals may dictate, to instill in students a commitment to acquire and apply new knowledge and to ethical behavior throughout their professional careers, and to make students aware of the global and societal effects of technology. To meet these objectives, the faculty has designed a rigorous curriculum that emphasizes fundamentals in the basic sciences and the humanities, integrates classroom and laboratory experiences in engineering, with advanced instruction in mathematics, statistics and computational science. The curriculum requires students to use modern engineering tools and computer technology, to work individually, and to practice teamwork.
