Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Computer Engineering] From University of Nevada

Computer engineering integrates several fields of electrical engineering and computer science. Computer engineering is one of the most vibrant and constantly changing fields in engineering. Computational capability that was only possible by machines that weighed tens of tons and required thousands of square feet of room space some time ago, are now afforded by chips smaller than a thumbnail.

Billion-transistor chips and Terabyte storage are now a reality, and Petaflop performance is within reach. On the other hand, software consideration has become an essential aspect of the design process. Devices such as cell phones, digital audio players, digital video recorders, alarm systems, x-ray machines, and laser surgical tools all require integration of hardware and software.

Computer engineers are employed in the manufacturing and R&D companies, federal and state government departments and research laboratories, healthcare, transportation, financial institutions, and service oriented businesses.
