Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering Technology
(code ET__BS16) (129 units)
Description
The primary objective of the Computer Engineering Technology program, accredited by
TAC of ABET (Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology Inc., 111 Market Place,
Suite #1050, Baltimore, MD 21202, phone: 410-347-7710,
website: http://www.abet.org), is to prepare graduates to
pursue careers related to manufacturing, integration, and support of computer systems. Emphasis
is placed on specific job skills required of entry level professionals in computer industry,
including systems analysis and design, data administration, networking, data communications,
data acquisition, oral and written communication, and management principles. The Computer
Engineering Technology program is available to students interested in the manufacturing
of computers and the applications and operations aspects of computer hardware and software.
The program is designed to meet ABET criteria for accredited programs in engineering technology.
The graduates of this program should find employment in industry and organizations where
a combination of practical hardware and software background is important.
