根据《美国新闻与世界报道》，电气和计算机工程系名列大学大学前100名。学生毕业时将获得近100％的工作职位，并且是所有学位课程中起薪最高的之一。计算机工程涉及在电子和电路方面的知识基础上对软件和硬件进行编程。计算机工程师设计并制造计算机，例如PC，工作站和超级计算机，以及基于计算机的系统，例如在汽车，飞机，家用电器，电子产品，电话和通讯网络中发现的计算机系统。计算机科学更关注对计算和编程的理论理解。它与电气工程的不同之处还在于，计算机工程为学生准备了更复杂的计算机工程职位，而电气工程是一个更广阔的领域。然
The Electrical and Computer Engineering Department is listed in the top 100 college departments according to U.S. News & World Report. Students graduate with nearly 100% job placement and have among the highest starting salaries of all degree programs.Computer engineering involves programming software and hardware, building on knowledge of electronics and circuits. A computer engineer designs and builds computers, such as PCs, workstations, and supercomputers, as well as computer-based systems like those found in cars, planes, appliances, electronics, phones, and communication networks.Computer engineering is different from computer science in that computer science is more concerned with the theoretical understanding of computation and programming. It is also different from electrical engineering in that computer engineering prepares students for more complicated computer engineering positions, while electrical engineering is a broader field. However, both fields include computer programming to a significant degree, and a good electrical foundation is required.<br>The computer engineering degree is accredited by the EAC Accreditation Commission of ABET.<br>Concurrent Bachelor's/Master's Program:<br>The department also offers a concurrent bachelor's/master's program, which allows USU engineering students to begin taking graduate classes during their senior year as an undergraduate and to complete requirements for both the BS degree and the master's degree concurrently over two years.
