Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Computer Engineering] From Case Western Reserve University

A graduate of this program will be able to use these fundamentals to analyze and evaluate computer systems, both hardware and software. A computer engineering graduate would also be able to design and implement a computer system for general purpose or embedded computing incorporating state-of-the-art solutions to a variety of computing problems. This includes systems which have both hardware and software component, whose design requires a well-defined interface between the two, and the evaluation of the associated trade-offs.The educational mission of the computer engineering program is to graduate students who have fundamental technical knowledge of their profession along with requisite technical breadth and communications skills to become leaders in creating the new techniques and technologies which will advance the general field of computer engineering. Core courses provide our students with a strong background in digital systems design, computer organization, hardware architecture, and digital electronics.

Computer Engineering is designed so that students attain:

• 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 multi-disciplinary teams

• an ability to identify, formulate, and solve 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

• a recognition of the need for, and an ability to engage in life-long learning

• a knowledge of contemporary issues

• an ability to use the techniques, skills, and modern engineering tools necessary for engineering practice.
