Course Overview

We are living in the era of the Internet. Almost any device or issue you can think of (computer networks, cybersecurity, controls for robotics, telephones, and more) involves computer hardware and software. Devices enhance how we work, play, and communicate. The design, development, and maintenance of devices involve critical teams of hardware and software specialists. That is where the computer engineering program comes in.

A wide variety of skills and expertise are needed in this area, from traditional hardware design and engineering, to computer programming. Unfold these areas and more through this program! The most exciting new area involves bridging the gap between hardware and software to focus on the application of computer systems to real-world problems. Gain the necessary skills to design, build, repair, and maintain this type of equipment and tools used in everyday life.
