B.S. in Computer Engineering Technology (BS CET)

Transfer Admission
 
Transfer admission is open to graduates of closely allied associate degree programs. Transfer students from such programs may normally expect to complete the requirements for the BS degree in three years, which includes six academic quarters and five quarters of cooperative work experience. Because no single program of study can effectively integrate all AAS transfer students into the curriculum, each qualified transfer student is evaluated on a course-by-course basis and is given a specific program of study that best meets his or her career goals, provides a meaningful cooperative work experience and permits the student to fulfill the degree requirements in a reasonable period of time.

Electives
Because of the need in the computer industry for graduates with diversified areas of expertise, the computer engineering technology program has a required three-course professional concentration sequence. This concentration can be taken in the area of computer science, systems administration, local area networks, wide area networks, or communications systems. This professional concentration allows students to customize their education yet ensures depth of knowledge in a subject matter beyond the core curriculum.

In addition to the professional concentration, the computer engineering technology curriculum has two technical electives, one general education elective, and one math/science elective. These provide even greater breadth of knowledge in an already well-rounded curriculum.
