我们的学生学习开发驱动现代世界的计算机系统。我们开发了更好的方法来路由Internet流量，提高数据安全性和完整性，提供清晰的手机接收甚至预测天气。我们的学生学习将电气工程学的硬件概念与计算机科学的软件概念相结合，以设计这些系统和其他系统。
Combine hardware concepts from electrical engineering with software concepts from computer science to design better ways to route Internet traffic, improve data security and integrity, provide clear cell phone reception, and even predict the weather. Digital computer and communication systems have transformed society in profound ways. From scientific supercomputers and embedded systems such as smart phones, to the internet of things (IoT) and smart cities, computing has become ubiquitous. The URI computer engineering program provides a strong foundation in the relevant fields of electrical engineering and computer science, while teaching the latest computer engineering topics, such as advanced computer architecture, computer network and cyber security, big data learning and processing, and field programmable gate array (FPGA).<br><br>Graduates from the program go on to positions in both government agencies and the private sector, or enter graduate school for further study. Many computer engineering undergraduate students work with faculty on research projects before entering graduate school.
