BSc in Computer Engineering

Four years $4,000 per academic year

Overview

Needs for Computer Engineers is growing due to the increasing number of factories, oil refineries and automated buildings, etc. while Computer Engineering programmes are not adequate in the region. The aim of the programme is to develop the know-how necessary to apply technology to engineering problems and processes in the above areas, and to maintain and manage current technology within a multidisciplinary engineering environment like Mathematics, Algorithmic, Electronics and Computer hardware and software. Therefore, the programme fits the growing need of computer engineers with necessary skills to be able to integrate rapidly into the industrial sector which is essential for the region in the future. Our students enjoy an environment of dynamic interaction with department staff who aim at continuously developing their learners’ skills. The Department also provides postgraduate programmes in Computer Engineering to promote scientific research.
