BS Computer Engineering


Overview

Introduction:

 In today's rapidly evolving technological landscape, the boundaries between traditional disciplines are dissolving. Electrical Engineering and Computer Science are merging to create a powerful force for innovation. Hardware and software automation are no longer separate entities but work together seamlessly. This interdisciplinary approach is fuelling the development of cutting-edge solutions in areas like embedded systems, artificial intelligence, and the Internet of Things.

The BSCE program offered at NUML aims at equipping graduates with the in-demand skills of both computing and hardware engineering, positioning them to become valuable assets in the workforce. This program aligns perfectly with the strategic vision of HEC and NCEAC, which recognizes the immense potential of merging Electrical Engineering and Computer Science to propel innovation forward.

The BS Computer Engineering Program is being offered by the Department of Electrical Engineering which is headed by Dr. Farhan Sohail.
