Computer Hardware Engineers
CPED is committed to produce graduates having solid foundation of computing systems design & development, and strong professional practices to adopt rapidly changing social and technological trends. A firmware engineer develops the low-level software found in home computers and electronic devices. They must be versed in both sides of the hardware and software interface and program efficient algorithms that will allow devices to operate both correctly and safely. Our faculty in the BS in Computer Engineering program have decades of experience working in robotics, aeronautics, embedded systems, and many other related fields. These are just a few of the faculty who teach core courses in the program. In this specialty, engineers build integrated environments for computing, communications, and information access. Examples include shared-channel wireless networks, adaptive resource management in various systems, and improving the quality of service in mobile and ATM environments. Some...
