The Computer Science program combines a strong engineering oriented
technical basis with a flexible interdisciplinary component and an
emphasis on communication skills. This flexibility will be
increasingly important in the future as computers become important
tools in an ever-increasing number of fields.
Students in the engineering computer science (EG-CSE) program will
satisfy the same requirements for general education and obtain the
same engineering pre-professional background in mathematics and
science as other engineering students. The program contains a strong
technical component comprising a set of required courses covering
essential areas in computing and a set of technical electives enabling
students to deepen their knowledge in chosen areas of computer science
and engineering. In addition, the program includes a set of
interdisciplinary electives in an area of the student's choice. This
area may be chosen from anything the university has to offer.
Students may choose an established minor, a predefined "track,"
or if nothing available meets their needs,
work with an advisor to develop their own program. Thus, students
will not need to wait for an interdisciplinary program to be
established; they can create their own.
To answer the demands of industry for employees with both technical
competence and the ability to communicate effectively, the program
requires communication courses beyond the usual engineering general
education requirements.
