102 Computer Engineering Program Administered by both the Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Departments through a joint Computer Engineering Committee. Student records are kept in the Electrical Engineering Department. 1300 S. W. Mudd, MC 4712 450 Computer Sciences Phone: 212-854-3105 www.compeng.columbia.edu In Charge Steven M.

Shepard Professor of Electrical Engineering and Biomedical Engineering Stephen H. Unger Professor Emeritus of Computer Science and Electrical Engineering Charles A. Zukowski Professor of Electrical Engineering The computer engineering program is run jointly by the Computer Science and Electrical Engineering departments. It offers both B.S. and M.S. degrees. The program covers some of engineering’s most active, exciting, and critical areas, which lie at the interface between CS and EE. The focus of the major is on computer systems involving both digital hardware and software. Some of the key topics covered are computer design (i.e., computer architecture); embedded systems (i.e., the design of dedicated hardware/ software for cell phones, automobiles, robots, games, and aerospace); digital and VLSI circuit design; computer networks; design automation (i.e., CAD); and parallel and distributed systems (including architectures, programming, and compilers). The undergraduate major includes one substantial senior design course, either designing an entire microprocessor (EECS E4340), or an embedded system (CSEE W4840) (including both software and hardware components), or providing hands-on experience in designing and using a computer network (CSEE W4140). Students in the programs have two “home” departments. The Electrical Engineering Department maintains student records and coordinates advising appointments. Undergraduate Program This undergraduate program incorporates most of the core curricula in both electrical engineering and computer science so that students will be well prepared to work in the area of computer engineering, which substantially overlaps both fields. Both hardware and software aspects of computer science are included, and, in electrical engineering, students receive a solid grounding in circuit theory and in electronic circuits. The program includes several electrical engineering laboratory courses as well as the Computer Science Department’s advanced programming course. Detailed lists of requirements can be found at www.compeng.columbia.edu/pages/ ugrad. Students will be prepared to work on all aspects of the design of digital hardware, as well as on the associated software that is now often an integral part of computer architecture. They will also be well equipped to work in the growing field of telecommunications. Students will have the prerequisites to delve more deeply into either hardware or software areas, and enter graduate programs in computer science, electrical engineering, or computer engineering. For example, they could take more advanced courses in VLSI, communications theory, computer architecture, electronic circuit theory, software engineering, or digital design. Minors in electrical engineering and computer science are not open to computer engineering majors, due to excessive overlap. engineering 2011–2012
