Computer Engineering (BS)

The Bachelor of Science program in Computer Engineering emphasizes the development of computer hardware for applications and prepares broadly trained computer engineers who are experienced in both software and hardware engineering. This program requires a minimum of 64 credit hours in computer science and computer engineering, 32 credit hours in mathematics and the natural sciences, and the university general education program.

The program curriculum provides required computer science and computer engineering courses such as data structures, assembly language programming, electronics, computer architecture, object-oriented software development, signals and systems, digital logic, microprocessor systems, embedded systems, senior design, and software engineering; as well as elective courses in image processing, microelectronics, signal processing, and other current topics in computer engineering, computer science, and cybersecurity.
