The Department of Computer Engineering aims to educate professionals who can produce knowledge-based solutions, think creatively and develop systematic approaches to engineering problems in a world where technology is developing rapidly. The department aims to enable students to understand the interaction between software and hardware and to have the knowledge and skills to produce technology.
At the same time, the department provides students with a solid background in engineering and basic sciences, blending disciplines such as algorithmic thinking, programming skills and data analytics, enabling students to master the technical skills required in the world of computer engineering. However, it also emphasizes the development of soft skills such as critical thinking, creative problem solving, teamwork, communication, and teamwork to enable graduates to compete globally.
Computer engineering education prepares students to lead the technologies of the future, respond to the needs of the industry and take an active role in innovation-oriented projects. In this direction, one of the main goals is to train engineers who can produce solutions in rapidly growing areas such as information technologies, artificial intelligence, data science, cyber security, embedded systems and advanced network technologies.
The aim of this department is not only to use existing technologies, but also to develop creative solutions that will contribute to the development of technology, to implement these solutions safely and effectively, and to realize projects that are beneficial to society.
Program Educational Objectives (PEOs)
According to the mission of Computer Engineering program, the following program educational objectives are career and professional accomplishments that our expected to be achieved by our graduates within a few years of their graduation:
-
Apply disciplinary reasoning, critical thinking, and hands-on skills to identify, analyze and solve problems
-
Communicate effectively in both oral and written form to articulate technical knowledge, ideas, and proposals
-
Consider professional, ethical and social responsibility of engineering technology practices
-
Perform effectively, think independently and work collaboratively in a team enviroment in a membership or leadership role
-
Actively participate in professional development, including continuous self-improvement and lifelong learning
Program Constituencies
The program constituencies are allumi, faculty, staff, and industry partners. The educational objectives meet the needs of students by providing them with the opportunities necessary to advance their skills to the point they are able to find a job in computing upon graduation from the program. Alternatively, the program also prepares students for graduate study in computer-related disciplines. The educational objectives meet the needs of faculty by providing opportunities for faculty to impart their knowledge of computing and advance their careers in academia. In addition, for faculty interested in research, the program offers students opportunities to engage with faculty in faculty-sponsored research. The educational objectives are enhanced by the work of staff since all students need to interact with staff members on academic issues, such as maintaining the grade records, advisement records, preparing the payment for all undergraduate and graduate assistants, and more administrative tasks. The educational objectives meet the needs of industry partners since graduates of the program are well prepared to enter the workforce. Since the program receives and evaluates continual feedback from industry partners, the program is kept up-to-date with and responds to industry needs.
