The Minor in Computer Science at AUD is a open to students majoring in any field except Computer Engineering.
The Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering (B.S.Comp.E) at AUD prepares a culturally diverse student population for successful professional careers in computer engineering at the local, regional and global levels.
The computer engineering undergraduate program bridges the gap between electrical engineering and computer science, with a curriculum that focuses on hardware-software integration, while preparing students for successful professional careers in areas such as computer hardware design, database engineering, and computer network security.
Designed to ensure excellence in the rapidly-evolving field of computer engineering, we emphasize the role of general education, ethical and social responsibility, in addition to life-long learning in the personal and professional growth of future computer engineers.
The Program strives to produce graduates who will:
The 137 credit-hours program will include 15-18 hours of computer engineering electives where students will be exposed to a wide variety of areas such as wireless communications, renewable energy, artificial intelligence, data network security, software engineering, mobile applications, and computer architecture.
The program culminates into a mandatory field experience and an interdisciplinary capstone design project. Since the introduction of a third year industry placement, our students have had a unique opportunity to work in some landmark projects in Dubai, the UAE, and worldwide.
To complete the Minor in Computer Science, students must earn a minimum of 15 credit hours chosen from following courses:
