Bachelor of Computer Engineering
Description:
The Department of Computer Engineering was established in conjunction with the establishment of the College of Engineering at Qassim University to meet the need of the various sectors in the Kingdom for this specialization and to prepare the required competencies and expertise, and the department seeks to qualify the student to be a specialist in the field of computer engineering after graduation. The philosophy of computer engineering combines computer science and electronic engineering, and its most important applications include the design of microprocessor systems, intelligent logic circuits, the development of robots, which are known as robots that are assigned to work in conditions that the natural person cannot bear, as well as work with high precision, computer control systems, development in the performance and industry of computers, as well as the establishment and design of networks of various types and then manage them. Graduates study the subjects that qualify them to accomplish these tasks and solve industrial issues (by introducing computer systems to them) on two axes: academically in scientific lectures delivered by specialists and practically in laboratory hours and graduation projects as well as field training.
