Computer engineering
Computer engineers design, build, test, and install high-tech computing devices for everything from the most powerful supercomputers to the tiniest, most energy-efficient microprocessors used in virtually all components of modern technology. They research, design, and develop hardware and software used in systems that deliver power, performance, safety, security, and reliability but also leverage these systems to create and enhance meaningful devices and applications used in our everyday world.
