B.Eng. Computer Engineering
Programme Duration : 5 years
B.Eng Computer Engineering is a programme approved by The Council for the Regulation of Engineering in Nigeria (COREN) and National Universities Commission (NUC)
Objectives
The main objective of the Department is to train Computer Engineers who can meet the challenges of advancements in technologies. Students obtaining the honours degree in Computer Engineering will receive a thorough background in various aspects of the field including Electrical Circuit Theory, Electrical Machines, Analogue System, Computer Architecture and Organization, Numerical Computation, Software Design Techniques, System Analysis and Design, Digital Systems Design, Embedded System, Intelligent Systems Design, Data Communications and Networks among many other courses.
Philosophy
The B.Eng. program in Computer Engineering is built on a foundation of mathematics, computing science, and physical science. A small component of electrical engineering is introduced in the secondyear, with progressively larger components in the second and third year. The fourth and final year is devoted exclusively to computer systems engineering courses. Each year of the program comprises a number of discipline-based courses and courses taught by other discipline areas. Most courses in the first two years of the program are common for engineering students.
