ABET Computer Engineering

The BS in Computer Engineering is currently seeking accreditation by the Engineering Accreditation Commission (EAC) of ABET.  This page summarizes the mission and vision of this program; educational objectives; learning outcomes; and student enrollment and graduation data.

Mission and vision

Vision Statement

The B.S. in Computer Engineering prepares students to work with other engineers and scientists to develop innovative consumer electronics, sensors and instrumentation, integrated circuits, communication systems, computers, and control systems. Computer engineers use digital design and engineering skills to design microcontrollers, microprocessors, and computing systems of all sizes. The computer engineering program emphasizes design, innovation, real-world applications, evolving technologies, use of industry caliber design, simulation and analysis tools, and the development of teaming, communication, and thinking skills.

Mission statement

Provide a premier educational experience by faculty who are dedicated to teaching and innovation, who are continuously aware of technical, economic, and social trends, and who are practitioners and contributors in their technical fields. This educational experience is characterized by:

  • A curriculum that develops knowledge and skills required to be a successful engineer in the modern world.
  • A balance between fundamental theory, applications, engineering design, and learning skills to sustain a long successful career and make immediate and practical contributions to society.
  • A curriculum that is responsive to changes in rapidly evolving technologies and the needs of society.
  • A program that serves Arizona, the western region of the United States, and the global community.

Program educational objectives (PEOs)

The Program Educational Objectives (PEOs) of the Bachelor of Science degree program in Computer Engineering are to graduate students who are expected, within a few years of degree completion, to achieve the following objectives:

  • be utilizing their education in their chosen career
  • be utilizing their technical and communication abilities
  • be competent in professional relationships

Program student learning outcomes (SLOs)

By the time you graduate from our undergraduate program, accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET, you will have achieved the following student learning outcomes:

  • An ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics
  • An ability to apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors
  • An ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences
  • An ability to recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts
  • An ability to function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives
  • An ability to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions
  • An ability to acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies.
