Our computer engineering degree allows you to acquire graduate-level experience as an undergraduate. Most computer engineering schools don’t introduce embedded systems until the graduate stage. Oakland University’s computer engineering program teaches these advanced skills using problem-solving approaches early-on in the undergraduate curriculum to prepare you for advanced internships and exciting careers.
Computer engineering salaries rank among the highest of any engineering profession. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, the median computer engineering salary is in the neighborhood of $110,000, higher than the average salary for other engineering career paths. Michigan computer engineering salaries are above the national average.
Our computer engineering program prepares you for a broad range of jobs and career pathways. You may find opportunities in fields such as:
The computer engineering degree begins with fundamental coursework in physics and calculus, and core engineering courses in thermal, industrial, electrical, and computer engineering. You’ll also take required classes in
Our computer engineering program includes optional concentrations in microelectronics, mechatronics, computer science, and communication. It concludes with a senior design project.
