Computer Engineering
Computer Engineering is a discipline that combines both Electrical Engineering
and Computer Science. Computer engineers normally get trained in electrical
engineering, software design and hardware-software integration instead of only
software engineering or electrical engineering. Designing of PCs, workstations,
and supercomputers, computerization of products like cars, planes, appliances,
electronics, phones, communication networks, and developing software and
firmware for embedded microcontrollers, designing VLSI chips, designing analog
sensors, designing mixed signal circuit boards, and designing operating systems
is the core job of the engineers in this stream..
Computer engineers also work to
carry out research on robotics, which relies heavily on using digital systems to
control and monitor electrical systems like motors, communications, sensors and.
many other products The main tasks of computer engineers involve Making a
career in computer science/engineering is challenging but rewarding. It requires
the basic skills of Physics and Maths. In recent times computer science and
engineering has become one of the most sought after career option for engineering
aspirants owing to the excellent employment opportunities in hardware and
software industries.
Eligibility For Computer Engineering

Mathematics.10+2 / I.Sc. Phy., Chem. & Math. Min. 50% Marks in each subject.One
must also pass the qualifying exam JEE (Joint Entrance Exam) conducted by the
IIT's.
Job Prospects & Career Options For Computer Engineering
Computer Engineering has a wide range of career opportunities in hardware and
computer system design, computer networks, software engineering, data
communications, multimedia processing, and internet and information technology.
While technology companies are a major employer of computer engineers,
companies in every sector of the economy, from business to government to
education all rely on the work of computer engineers.
