Computer Engineering Undergraduate Degree Program Objectives
 

The curriculum structure provides an in-depth study of the major areas of computer engineering by providing a strong mathematical foundation, a balanced view of hardware and software design and application techniques. The goal of the program is to train students in skills of the computer engineering with emphasis on design and application of computer hardware and software.

The Computer Engineering Program Educational Objectives are:

Depth. To provide students with an understanding of the fundamental knowledge necessary for the practice of, or for advanced study in electrical or computer engineering, including its scientific principles, rigorous analysis, and creative design.

Breadth. To provide students with the broad education necessary for productive careers, or for the pursuit of graduate education, including knowledge of important current issues in engineering with emphasis on computer engineering.

Professionalism. To develop skills for clear communication and responsible team work, and to inculcate professional attitudes and ethics, so that students are prepared for the complex global work environment.

Educational Renewal. To prepare our students with an ability to continually renew their education in a rapidly developing discipline, including recognition of the importance of life-long learning.
