Overview

Undergraduate program for the aspiring globally competitive computer engineering professionals.

The Computer Engineering program at Hamad Bin Khalifa University is built on HBKU’s unique model of developing interdisciplinary programs that draw on the expert knowledge of its partner institutions alongside its own faculty. This means that students are able to take courses provided by Texas A&M University at Qatar and Carnegie Mellon University in Qatar in addition to the comprehensive range of course offerings from HBKU.

Students explore the design of real-world computer engineering systems and are exposed to real-life problems and challenges through a design component that is integrated into the program, as well as through a final year project.

The dynamic multidisciplinary approach of the curriculum equips the program’s graduates with an exceptionally well-rounded understanding of computer engineering, ensuring that they have all the necessary skills needed for them to go on to explore a wide range of rewarding careers or further study.
