Undergraduate

Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering

Study and apply electronics, hardware and software engineering to produce computing devices for products in everyday life

"Your first classes have you doing binary numbers and different types of logic gates. It really starts to make sense how computers work."

Jacob Raby

Computer engineering major from Olive Branch, MS

About this program

Computer engineers build computing devices – everything from personal computers and supercomputers to systems in cell phones, household appliances and transportation. They can work with emerging technologies such as self-driving automobiles, 5G wireless and artificial intelligence.

With a computer engineering degree from Ole Miss, you have a wide variety of choice in terms of career path. Companies in the hardware/software development, electronic chip production, automotive, aerospace, defense, heavy-machinery and utilities sectors all need computer engineers.

Cutting-edge field

Computer Engineering is the latest addition to the school’s engineering degree programs, and with that you’ll get:

Energetic faculty – you’ll have professors who are keen to set up a first-class program.

Strong linkage with electrical engineering – you can take courses in wireless communications, signal processing, electromagnetics as well as computer science classes.

Leading-edge software – through our Cadence University membership, you have access to the tools and methodologies central to the development of microelectronic systems.
