Overview

Program Description The computer engineering technology degree is designed to meet industry’s ever-increasing need for computer engineers with an in-depth knowledge of hardware and software design. Students will gain a solid foundation of engineering principles through intensive classroom and laboratory experiences. Examples of the types of applications utilizing embedded systems include medical diagnostic equipment, digital cameras, missile guidance systems, anti-lock brakes, scanners, copiers, autonomous vehicles, network routers, and smartphones. The embedded systems designer must be proficient in hardware design, programming, and problem-solving. The curriculum bridges the gap between hardware and software by providing a solid foundation in each and integrating them with intensive classroom and laboratory experiences. From a software perspective, students gain experience in cutting-edge development with programming languages currently used in industry. Students learn industry standards for application software development, the process for creating development application code, and master state-of-the-art problem-solving techniques. Students utilize embedded "C" real-time operating systems programming in numerous courses. The hardware focus of the curriculum is on digital systems design and development. From low-level gate design to high-end microprocessors students gain an architectural understanding of computer systems. The curriculum includes in-depth design and analysis of combinational logic, sequential logic and state machines, micro-controller systems, and microprocessor systems. Students perform FPGA development and design in a hardware description language using industry standard computer-aided engineering tools. A capstone experience in the fifth year enables students to integrate what they’ve learned throughout the curriculum in a team environment. Past capstone projects include autonomous rovers and self-guided drones. Accelerated dual degree options are for undergraduate students with outstanding academic records. Upon acceptance, well-qualified undergraduate students can begin graduate study before completing their BS degree, shortening the time it takes to earn both degrees. Students should consult an academic advisor for more information.

OPT and STEM OPT eligibility depend on maintaining F-1 status and on the program. A program counts as STEM only when its CIP code is on the official STEM list — not because its name sounds technical.
