Accreditation

The program educational objectives state that, within three to five years after graduation, graduates are expected to:

• successfully participate in the computer engineering related professions.
• progress through advanced degree or certificate programs in engineering and other professionally related fields.
• will advance to positions of leadership, greater responsibility and intellectual challenge. 

Graduates of the CE program will have an ability to:  

1. identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics. 
2. apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors.
3. communicate effectively with a range of audiences.                                 
4. recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts.
5. function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives.
6. develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions.
7. acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies. 

The program educational objectives state that, within three to five years after graduation, graduates are expected to:

• Be employed in professional practice in which they apply principles of computer science to solve complex problems.
• Consistently communicate clearly, both verbally and in writing, and with persons from diverse educational and cultural backgrounds.
• Consider the ethical, societal, and global impacts of computing in decision making.
• Actively pursue professional development through training programs, graduate-level education, or active membership in professional societies.
   

By the time of graduation, students in the Computer Science program will attain an ability to:
