Program Description Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University's Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering degree gives students the opportunity to acquire a broad background in computer design, including embedded control systems, real-time systems, telecommunication systems, and software engineering. The curriculum includes courses in general education, computer science, software engineering, and electrical engineering, and features a capstone senior design. Students earning their B.S. in Computer Engineering at ERAU’s Daytona Beach Campus get a chance to develop practical engineering knowledge and skills by working with hands-on projects, combining real-world system design and development practices with the fundamentals of computer engineering. Both individually and in teams, students learn to work with and develop embedded, real-time computer systems like those that lie at the heart of everything from mobile phones to spacecraft. Students begin this program by completing the College of Engineering’s Freshman Engineering Program. The program includes a general education core of Speech and College Success, introductions to engineering and computing, plus courses in calculus and analytical geometry and physics for engineers. Computer Engineering students at the Daytona Beach Campus benefit from a wide range of hardware and software development tools and resources that are available in our Team Software Development environments and Real-Time Systems laboratories. The program’s emphasis on real-time embedded control systems and hardware/software interfaces give program graduates employment opportunities beyond graduates of traditional computer engineering programs, including positions in the aerospace and defense industries. Graduates of this program are prepared to engineer computer systems critical to aviation, aerospace, and related industries.
