Bachelor of Science degree with a major in Computer Engineering Technology
Accredited by the Engineering Technology Accreditation Commission (ETAC) of ABET, http://www.abet.org
The purpose of the Computer Engineering Technology Program is to prepare students to design, develop, and implement computer-based applications. The CpET program is offered by a partnership between the Department of Engineering Technology and the Computer and Information Technology program. A major emphasis of the CpET program is practice-oriented, experiential training in all learning environment to provide students and graduates with a rich experience in computer applications.
B.S. degree graduates will be able to provide technical support for computer systems in advanced manufacturing systems, control systems, networks, telecommunication systems, embedded systems, product development, and instrumentation. Graduates of the B.S. CpET program will have titles such as software engineer, automation engineer, applications software engineer, systems analyst, telecommunications engineer, network administrator and system test engineer.
In addition to all the school and university requirements, this degree requires that both the IU Cumulative GPA and the Degree GPA be equal to or greater than 2.000.
It also required that students earn a minimum grade of C or better in all ECET core competency courses.
