除了传统的大型计算机应用程序外，包含某种形式的嵌入式计算系统的设备也正在社会中普及。计算机工程师为所有这些系统设计和开发硬件和软件，从软件应用程序到通信网络再到计算系统中的组件再到小型嵌入式传感器。计算机工程的分支包括操作系统，嵌入式系统设计，数字电路，算法，软件设计，计算机体系结构。
In addition to traditional large computer applications, devices containing some form of embedded computing system are becoming pervasive in our society. Computer engineers design and develop hardware and software for all of these systems, ranging from software applications to communication networks to components in computing systems to small embedded sensors.Branches of computer engineering include:operating systemsembedded systems designdigital circuitsalgorithmssoftware designcomputer architectureImportant applications include:wired and wireless networkssimulationautomationdigital controlsensingroboticsapps and data managementOur comprehensive curriculum prepares students to identify, formulate and implement solutions to real-world technology problems. Students learn how to use modern computer engineering tools in well-equipped laboratories, with activities that reinforce the concepts learned in the classroom.The curriculum emphasizes design and teamwork and culminates in a capstone senior design project that integrates the material learned in earlier courses. Students graduate with a Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering.
