Computer Engineering focuses on hardware and artificial intelligence to solve real-life problems using a combined knowledge of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science.
UBC’s Computer Engineering students are solidly schooled from the ground up-from integrating software and computer hardware, to AI applications and data analytics.
Through project-based team learning, students will develop foundational engineering and project management skills. Working in state-of-the-art facilities alongside Computer and Electrical Engineering researchers and faculty, students will hone their expertise in Computer Engineering.
Students will develop the ability to:
Formulate and solve engineering problems using Computer Engineering principles based on Applied Science and Mathematics
Utilize the basic principles of electronic circuit design and analysis, including computer-aided design tools to design and implement computing hardware
Design and implement systems that integrate hardware and software to solve practical problems
Develop safe, secure, and scalable computing applications and solutions having appropriate design trade-offs
