The Bachelor of Science degree program in computer engineering is accredited by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET). The curriculum is carefully designed to provide a modern program, balancing the study of hardware, software, theory, and practice. The program prepares students to be skillful practitioners by combining these studies with a thorough foundation in science, mathematics, and electrical and computer engineering. In addition to offering well-equipped educational laboratories, excellent faculty, and flexible programs for working professionals, the program also affords students with unique opportunities for research in the local area.

Laboratory experience in design, experimenta-tion, observation, implementation, and discovery complement the theoretical portion of the program.

Computer Engineering Program Objectives

• To produce graduates recognized by industrial, government, and academic entities as having a sound, current, and comprehensive education by providing a balanced and integrated hard-ware and software educational experience that is rich in modern laboratory, project, and design experiences, and which emphasizes team participation, problem solving, and communication skills

• To prepare and retain students who, upon graduation, will be motivated to pursue lifelong learning, continuing education, and graduate studies, as required by their personal development goals, through a stimulating, broad, and modern educational experience that is well grounded in the mathematical, scientific, and engineering principles, as well as in the fundamental concepts and theory of computing

• To instill in computer science and engineering students a sense of social responsibility, a code of conduct, and ethical values appropriate to the discipline, so that our graduates are valuable contributors in their societal and professional environments

• To encourage broad participation in our programs by nontraditional students (such as part-time, working, returning, and students with disabilities), and by women and minorities, through accessible facilities and through our scheduling and conduct of late afternoon and evening classes

• To recognize and encourage excellence in faculty teaching, research, and service

Graduates of the computer engineering program are prepared to supervise, design, and implement systems employing computer hardware, software, and firmware.

Degree Requirements - Computer Engineering

Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering Degree

Electives must be chosen with the consent of an advisor to provide a coherent major concentration and design experience. At least four credit hours of CEG 498, design experience, must be selected.

Curriculum design changes from time to time to meet educational and accreditation needs. The curriculum outlined is typical; however, students should check with the department for the current curriculum guide. All programs should be planned in consultation with an advisor.
