Program Description

Students in the Computer Engineering department enjoy a wide variety of facilities which are well-equipped laboratories for networking, digital systems, microprocessors, programming, and Micro-controller-based systems. For every group of students there exists a guide that will help them choose which courses they should register per semester and will follow up their progress along the semester to help them achieve better grades. The main objective of CE program at AASTMT is to produce and qualify graduate computer engineers that satisfy the following characteristics: (1)Possess the ability to design computers and computer-based systems that include both hardware and software to solve novel engineering problems, subject to trade-offs involving a set of competing goals and constraints. In this context, “design” refers to a level of ability beyond “assembling” or “configuring” systems. (2) Have a breadth of knowledge in mathematics and engineering sciences, associated with the broader scope of engineering and beyond that narrowly required for the field. (3) Acquire and maintain a preparation for professional practice in engineering. Demonstrate the ability to design, develop, implement, and improve integrated systems that include people, materials, information, equipment and energy. (4) Provide strong ties and linkages between the local economic sectors and industrial communities with the department graduates in areas related to research, hands-on training, and field investigations.

Learning Outcomes

• The program must prepare graduates to attain the ability to: (1) Identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics, (2) 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, (3)Communicate effectively with a range of audiences, (4) 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, (5) Function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives, (6) Develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions, (7) Acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies.
