BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN COMPUTER ENGINEERING
Senior Year in Computer Engineering
Heavy duty computer courses characterize the senior year in addition to completion of the capstone senior project course.
Capstone Design Experience
Design reviews, and final reports are required for the project work and alumni tell us that this design experience was the highlight of their upper division experience since it so well matches what is later found in an industrial setting. For students going on to graduate school, the opportunity to have previously initiated and completed a project, including financial and manpower aspects, help with later thesis work.
Getting a Job
As the student approaches the end of the B.S. program, job opportunities and collegial experiences help shape the specifications for that first full time job! There is more in depth study of computer networks, real time computing environments, aviation and space applications – all of these are good preparation for what comes next. Job fairs, resume preparation and job interviews all remind us that the end of the four year experience is near. Some of the "softer" aspects of engineering, including economics and ethics, help round out the undergraduate experience.
