Computer Systems Engineering
The Computer Science and Engineering Department offers a Bachelor of Science in Engineering, Computer Systems Engineering (BSE CSE). Graduates of the program have a solid foundation in the fundamental concepts of computer hardware and softwaredesign, electrical engineering, mathematics, physics, and can apply these skills to solve real-world problems. Graduates are in a position to take advantage of a wide variety of professional opportunities available to computer systems engineers in industries including computer software, computer hardware, telecommunications, electronics, consulting, healthcare, aviation, energy, national defense, robotics and a broad spectrum of financial institutions. The Computer Science and Engineering Department also offers a Minor in Computer Systems Engineering.

The Bachelor of Science in Engineering, Computer Systems Engineering program is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET, www.abet.org.

Program Objectives

  1. Graduates are successful practitioners of computer engineering in a variety of industries, government agencies, and research/academic institutions, serving the State of Alaska as well as national/international needs.
  2. Graduates exhibit high standards regarding ethical behavior and social responsibility.
  3. Graduates successfully engage in life-long learning experiences such as graduate education, short courses, technical talks, conferences, training program, community groups, and writing and/or publishing papers.

Student Learning Outcomes

The program has chosen the following set of program outcomes. It is expected that graduates from the program will have:

  1. An ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, science, and engineering.
  2. An ability to design and conduct experiments, as well as analyze and interpret data.
  3. An ability to design a system, component, or process to meet desired needs within realistic constraints such as economic, environmental, social, political, ethical, health and safety, manufacturability, and sustainability .
  4. An ability to function on multidisciplinary teams.
  5. An ability to identify, formulate, and solve engineering problems.
  6. An understanding of professional and ethical responsibility.
  7. An ability to communicate effectively.
  8. The broad education necessary to understand the impact of engineering solutions in a global, economic, environmental, and societal context.
  9. A recognition of the need for, and the ability to engage in, lifelong learning.
  10. A knowledge of contemporary issues.
  11. An ability to use the techniques, skills, and modern engineering tools necessary for engineering practice.
