Master of Science - Computer Engineering

As technology advances ever more rapidly, the computer industry and society as a whole need professionals who possess a combination of electronic hardware and computer software skills. These skills should be developed in the context of modern systems to make them more practical and useful. 

Artificial Intelligence (AI) innovations and applications, the Internet of Things (IoT), Networking and 5G wireless communications, and embedded systems are changing many aspects of daily life, including driving, entertainment, communication, health care, and virtual and robotic assistants. These changes are creating many new engineering jobs in the fields of AI applications, AI chip design, smart edge-device design, IoT system design, and intelligent system design.

The Master of Science in Computer Engineering (MSCE) degree program will focus on the overlap of electrical engineering and computer science. MSCE students will learn to design embedded systems that power the IoT system and study the design techniques that are used in wearable vital sign monitoring devices such as Apple watch. The MSCE students can take the AI concentration as an option. The AI concentration is designed based on the latest trends in the industry in developing Deep Learning and reinforcement learning algorithms and deploying them on the edge devices.
