Computer Engineering Program
The Computer Engineering Program begins in Second Year of undergraduate studies after completing the required First Year Engineering courses. Students will graduate with a Bachelor of Applied Science in Computer Engineering.
Is Computer Engineering or Computer Science right for you?
Computer science studies the theoretical foundations of information and computation while inventing algorithmic processes that create, describe and transform information.
Computer Engineering integrates both electrical engineering and computer science in the development of computer systems. These engineers are involved in many hardware and software aspects of computing including design of microcontrollers, computers and circuit design. Computer Engineers focus not just on how computers work but how to integrate them into larger systems.
Within the Computer Engineering Program can students can choose to complete the following Option:
- Software Engineering Option
Students that wish to switch from the Computer Engineering Program to the Electrical Engineering Program must complete the online application form, available mid-February.
