Cullen College of Engineering  > Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering  > Computer Engineering, B.S.Cp.E.

ECE Base

In the ECE Department, taking courses in either degree plan is organized into two phases. The first two years are the ECE Base. The ECE Base provides fundamental skills in math, science, and electrical engineering, and is identical for BSEE and BSCpE majors.

BSCpE Degree Plan

In the last two years of the BSCpE degree plan, students specialize in Computer Engineering, including a mix of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science courses.

All students in the BSCpE program are assigned a Faculty Advisor in the Computer Engineering area and must meet with that advisor before taking courses in the last two years of the degree plan.

The Computer Engineering Major GPA is calculated using all ECE courses (except ECE 3336) as well as all Engineering Computing XXXX 1331 courses, and all COSC courses that could be applied to the BS in Computer Engineering Degree.
