Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering (BSCPE)

The Electrical and Computer Engineering programs provide the student with a thorough background in electronic/hardware and systems design. Individual students can tailor their program to his or her specific interests by selecting appropriate technical or design electives. Elective areas include electronics, and land-based wireless communications, VLSI, digital signal processing (DSP), power electronics, controls, robotics, image processing, and embedded systems. In all of our courses, we stress the balance of theory and practice. The theory, presented in class, is coupled with extensive, practical, hands-on laboratory projects and experiments. Our laboratories are well equipped and all facilities are available for undergraduate use. Our laboratory equipment is updated on a rotating basis, allowing for a continued renewal and state-of-the-art technology in a rapidly changing world. Electrical and Computer Engineering Laboratories: Embedded Systems Laboratory Controls and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory Robotics / Mechatronics Laboratory Circuits Laboratory Electronics Laboratory Energy / Power Laboratory RF / Wireless Laboratory Digital Signal/Image Processing and Communications Laboratory Projects Laboratory Program Educational Objectives In support of the program objectives for the College of Engineering, the Electrical Engineering and Computer Engineering programs will prepare our students to be proficient at putting theory into practice, capable of lifelong learning, and be aware of the social, ethical, and environmental issues associated with their professional activities. To ensure these goals, our specific expected accomplishments of our graduates during the first several years following graduation for the program are: To be successful analyzing, designing, or testing electrical/computer systems; To be a productive member of a team; To be assuming leadership roles in their career; To be contributing in professional and civic service; and To be pursuing lifelong learning. Student Outcomes The outcomes necessary to achieve our Electrical Engineering program and Computer Engineering program objectives are that our students will have: An ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, science, and engineering; An ability to design and conduct experiments, as well as to analyze and interpret data; an ability to design a system, component, or process to meet desired needs within realistic constraints such as economic, environmental, social, political, ethical, health and safety, manufacturability, and sustainability; An ability to function on multidisciplinary teams; An ability to identify, formulates, and solves engineering problems; An understanding of professional and ethical responsibility; An ability to communicate effectively; The broad education necessary to understand the impact of engineering solutions in a global, economic, environmental, and societal context;
