Computer Engineering

Computer engineers are active in and in demand for all phases of technology research, design and development, testing, manufacturing, sales, and management of computer technologies. In addition, many successful leaders in other professions, such as law, medicine, and business, pursue an undergraduate education in computer engineering as preparation for later professional study. Thus the undergraduate curriculum provides preparation in both mathematics and physical sciences, coupled with coverage of all aspects of computing, software, hardware, design, and application. The program’s flexible elective structure offers the student considerable opportunity for professional specialization, area specialization within the computing discipline, or interdisciplinary broadening. The computer engineering program is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET: http://www.abet.org. For more information about the program, contact coeugrad@pitt.edu or see https://www.engineering.pitt.edu/coeundergraduate.

Electrical Engineering

The electrical engineering program equips its graduates with solid theoretical and practical foundations in power systems, electromagnetics, semiconductor devices, electronic circuit design, signal processing, and control theory. Students build on these foundations through specialization in advanced and contemporary electrical engineering topics and opportunities to apply and expand their skill set through design projects, research, and cooperative education.  The electrical engineering program is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET: http://www.abet.org.
