BA/BS in Computer Engineering

The Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering blends electrical engineering with computer science. Computer engineers help design and control large systems such as aircraft, vehicles, medical instruments, telecommunications and factory automation. The program stresses practical experience. Co-op placements and industry-sponsored projects let students earn paid work experience while studying, and an entrepreneurship program focuses on creating and marketing products and services. First-year coursework includes composition, chemistry and chemistry lab, followed by engineering and computing subjects in later semesters. The page lays out the curriculum by year and term, so prospective students can see how engineering, mathematics and computing courses are sequenced across the degree. Students also benefit from small classes and attention from faculty, and the page includes the full course plan so applicants can see what each term involves before applying.
