Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering
B.Sc. in Computer Engineering focuses on hardware, data communications and software engineering. A technical definition from ACM and IEEE-CS1 defines the computer engineering discipline as being concerned with the design and construction of computers and computer based systems
Course Overview
This programme blends theory and practice into a learning experience that develops skills applicable to complex real-world problems in the area of computer engineering. Students study the design of digital hardware and software including communications systems, computers and devices such as phones, MP3 players, DVRs, alarm systems, x-ray machines, and even laser surgical tools. Increasingly, CE specialists integrate customised hardware and embedded software, to improve existing technologies and invent new ones.
