Principles of Computer Engineering



Principles of Computer Engineering

A student pursuing Computer Engineering gets to study design, programming languages, and computational processes. Apart from that, the students also get to know about the principles of Computer Engineering, as well as the technical know-how of developing various hardware and software and get to learn about communications systems and other devices. From troubleshooting issues on a software level to learning various programming languages and operating systems, gathering the technical aspects related to software and its advancements, Computer Engineering helps a student to learn interface development as well as solving various problems related to it. A computer engineer contributes and customizes various computer systems as per the industry requirements.

Be it Motherboards, Microprocessors, DVD writers, or Graphics cards, a computer engineer helps develop every essential element of a computer system. The Computer Engineering degree is divided into two parts, namely Software Engineering and Hardware Engineering. Hardware Engineering ranges from the construction of a small microchip to large Scientific Computers. On the other hand, Software engineering focuses on constructing and designing software for several purposes. For example, the main tasks performed by a software computer engineer include editing software, building Antiviruses, Games, Constructing Linux windows, etc. The course covers other elements like Robotics, Artificial Intelligence, Smart games, etc.

Topics covered under Computer Engineering

  • Computer Engineering is a four-year course in which students cover up subjects in mathematics and a wide array of subjects in electronics communication, computer science, and information technology, the basics of electrical engineering, etc. in their first year.
  • During the second year of Computer Engineering, students get to study subjects like discrete computational structures, logic design, object-oriented programming, electronic devices and circuits, principles of programming languages, microprocessors, automata languages, and computation, computer architecture and organization, communication techniques, and data structures.
  • Students study subjects like software engineering, system programming, computer graphics, advanced microprocessors, database management systems, compiler construction, operating systems, digital signal processing, analysis, and design of algorithms during the third year of Computer Engineering.
  • During the fourth and the final year of Computer Engineering, the students study the principles of Computer Engineering subjects like advanced architecture and parallel processing, industrial organization, and management, distributed computing, advanced computer networks, embedded systems, artificial intelligence, security in computing, object-oriented modeling and design, artificial neural networks, and mobile computing. Other things that are a part of the final year include projects, assignments, elective subjects, labs, etc.
