B.S in Computer Engineering
The objective of the Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering degree program at K-State is to prepare you for a professional career in engineering.
Computer engineering combines the computer-oriented side of electrical engineering with ideas in computer science for design of low-level software — operating systems, kernels and drivers — that allows various computer-based hardware pieces of a system to work together.
The computer engineering curriculum provides the following:
- An understanding of basic sciences, mathematics and communication skills
- A theoretical basis in electrical engineering
- The application of basic concepts to practical problems
- Advanced skills in problem solving where hardware and software trade-offs are necessary
- A strong laboratory experience stressing system design and implementation
- A general education that complements the technical content
- An understanding of the ethical, social, safety and economic factors required for engineering practice
A sequence of advanced courses stressing engineering design prepare the student for the entry-level positions in the profession.
