Overview

Computer Engineering prepares you to develop computer hardware and software solutions for today's technologies. We will provide you with a strong background in engineering analysis and design and give you the implementation skills you need to succeed.

Our graduates pass Professional Engineer tests at rates higher than the national average. Alumni attend top graduate schools, including Johns Hopkins, Carnegie Mellon and Georgia Tech.

What You Will Learn

The computer engineering curriculum provides a balance of hardware, software and computer theory and applications with a basic background in electrical engineering. Nine credits of electives allow you to delve deeply into selected subject matter.

In the last two semesters, students will work on a senior design project (capstone) as the culmination of their engineering education. After developing objectives and analysis, students create design concepts, researching implementation methods and performing a feasibility study. At the end of the final semester, students present their projects.

A minor in computer engineering allows you to explore computer hardware and applications without the heavy math and science prerequisites of other STEM fields. You will study basic digital design concepts, microprocessor applications and VHDL design.

University of West Florida offers classes through various delivery methods, including face-to-face, hybrid, and online. Though UWF makes every effort to provide on-campus classes in face-to-face programs, there is a possibility that some classes will have limited availability and may be offered online only.
