Computer engineers focus on applications that demand expertise in both electrical engineering and computer science. They create and produce computer hardware components (ranging from microchips to servers), develop and manage network and communication infrastructures, and engineer numerous intelligent devices that continuously transform our lifestyles and workplaces. These professionals lead advancements in areas like cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, network systems, and integrated electronics. The undergraduate computer engineering curriculum merges top-tier engineering education with Brown's renowned Computer Science Department. Enrolled students complete coursework in both disciplines, building comprehensive skills in software development and hardware design. This cross-disciplinary approach also equips them to recognize and develop groundbreaking applications combining hardware and software solutions.
