The Computer Engineering Technology program provides training in hardware configuration, software development, programming applications, and the interfacing of hardware/software and communication systems. Students receive hands-on training on various computer systems, test equipment, and software products.
Program Outcomes
Upon successful completion of all program requirements, graduates should be able to:
- Identify, analyze, and solve technical problems in computer programming, circuitry, hardware/software and communication systems
- Use diagnostic software and testing equipment to troubleshoot problems
- Install and configure computer hardware and software
- Understand programming and assembly languages
- Use CAD technology to design, create, analyze, simulate and evaluate electrical circuits and schematics
- Work cooperatively and productively with others in a laboratory test setting
Graduates of this program possess the skills to troubleshoot, repair, configure, install, and program basic computer systems. The experience and training gained in the Computer Engineering Technology Associate in Science degree program will also prepare students for the national CompTIA Computer Technicians A+ Certification Examination (offsite).
