• Degrees offered by CSE department• Degree requirements• New regulations• Advising

CSEAdded emphasis on hardware, for example

•EE circuit theory•Digital Logic

•Embedded systems•Chemistry required

CS

SEAdded emphasis on managing

complex software systems, for example•OO design

•Software engineering processes•Software testing

•Software project management

Computer Science (CS)• Software Applications – apply computing and technology

to solve problems outside the computer field – for example, in medicine, manufacturing, videogames

• Artificial Intelligence and Robotics – develop computers and other machines and systems that simulate human learning and reasoning ability

• Operating Systems and Networks - develop the software that computers use to supervise themselves or to communicate with other computers

• Information Technology – develop and manage information systems that support a business or organization, including databases and other tools

Computer Science and Engineering(in addition to those for CS)

• Computer Design and Engineering – design new computer circuits, instruction sets and other electronic components to provide powerful and cost-effective computing

• Embedded Applications – design the unique software at the hardware level for applications ranging from cellphones to control systems onboard aircraft

• Autonomous vehicles – robotic vehicles independently controlled in environments ranging from undersea, ground, air, and space

• Supercomputing – hardware and software integration and implementation to increase raw computing power, primarily for scientific applications like weather simulation, security and encryption, image processing, etc.

Software Engineering (SE)

• Apply engineering discipline to design, scale up, test, manage, and maintain all of the kinds of systems described earlier
