Computer engineering is the intersection of electronic engineering and computer science. Computer engineers create digital systems and devices that allow people to communicate information globally. Computer engineers research, design, develop and test computer systems and processors, circuit boards, memory devices, networks, routers and other components. In this ABET-accredited computer engineering program, you will amass an in-depth knowledge of the following principles: computer application software, computer systems, architecture and operation, communication systems, data communications and computer networks. Ready to get your hands dirty As a computer engineering major, you will design your own devices and systems as part of a team during the capstone course you'll take senior year. You will learn the important role each of the engineering branches plays in designing and maintaining computers, computer networks and software, electronic devices, and other complex systems.
