Computer Engineering Program

The mission of the Computer Engineering Bachelor of Science program at University of Houston-Clear Lake is to provide students instruction in the pragmatic application of core knowledge by which they can specify, design and develop large and small computer systems for industrial and scientific purposes. Students get hands-on experience in digital system design, microprocessor and embedded system, communication and network, and robotics. The culminating experience for a student in this plan is CENG 4265/CENG 4266 Senior Projects.

Computer Engineering is an interdisciplinary field of study that combines electrical engineering and computer science into a specialized field of practice. The plan addresses the evaluation, design and implementation of computer systems for various applications. Computer engineers improve computers and computing systems and upon completion of your degree, you will be heavily in demand for highly coveted, well-compensated leadership roles across business and industry.
