Computer Engineering - Bachelor's (B.S.)
DEGREE OVERVIEW
The Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering degree program will provide students the knowledge and skills required to develop and apply computer systems to practical, real-world problems.
ABOUT THE PROGRAM
In addition to required core courses, students can choose from a large selection of electives to focus on such diverse topics as multi-threaded programming on bare-metal, custom real-time operating systems, and embedded Linux systems; implementation of IP stacks for computer networking; network and wireless protocol development for Internet of Things devices; design of real-time operating systems; implementation of RISC processors in FPGA devices; design of digital logic, system on chip, and microprocessor systems; control of systems with electromechanical actuators and sensors; and design of digital and wireless communication systems.
They will also apply the knowledge and skills gained in the classroom in real-world settings through internships or co-ops and course projects, including the capstone project.
The 124-hour curriculum leads to a Bachelor of Science degree in computer engineering. Transfer students may receive credit for courses listed in the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board’s Field of Study Curriculum.
