What courses will you take?
Accredited by ABET, UMass Lowell's Computer Engineering program provides an understanding of embedded hardware and software systems, stand-alone and distributed computing systems, and computer networks.
You will take courses in engineering science and design that offer a balanced view of hardware, software, application tradeoffs, basic modeling techniques and the use of computer-aided design tools.
You will also take courses in the humanities and social sciences that help broaden your understanding of the role that non-technical knowledge plays in determining a high level of professional responsibility.
An important aspect of our curriculum is the senior-year technical elective program intended to broaden or deepen technical knowledge according to students’ interests and competencies. Senior students also can participate in a project-based capstone to develop a custom-designed product for a client with a disability through the Assistive Technology Program.
