Accreditation

The Bachelor of Science (B.S.) degree programs in electrical engineering and computer engineering at the University of Idaho are accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET, http://www.abet.org.

Computer Engineering Program Educational Objectives

Within a few years of completing their Computer Engineering degree at the University of Idaho, our graduates are, collectively, expected to:

• Apply their engineering knowledge through professional positions in industry, government, non-profit organizations, or academia;
• Continue their professional growth through graduate studies, professional training, and other educational opportunities; and
• Serve society through collaboration and volunteering across public, private, governmental, and non-profit agencies.

Computer Engineering Student Outcomes

Upon graduation, students will have:

1. an ability to identify, formulate and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science and mathematics
2. an ability to apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental and economic factors
3. an ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences
4. an ability to recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental and societal contexts
5. an ability to function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks and meet objectives
6. an ability to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions
7. an ability to acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies
