Computer Engineeringand
Aeronautical and Astronautical Engineering
By: Rohan Rao and Randy Lewis
Computer Engineering Overview
• Computer Engineering is in the College of Engineering
• It is the combination of both the hardware and software aspects of computers
• It involves all areas of computer systems; from building to operating
Computer Engineering Courses
• Learn about circuits, electronics, programming, systems, and data structures
• ECE 301-Signals and Systems
• Analysis and design of time and frequency systems, and various linear systems
• ECE 208-Electronic Devices & Design Laboratory
• Analyzing the characteristics of electronic devices, and their relationship with circuits
Computer Engineering Careers
• Artificial Engineering: Develop computer systems that can reproduce the abilities of humans
• Computer Design and Engineering: Designing and creating the electronic component aspect of computers
• Software Engineering: Creating systems to solve problems using computer programming
Electrical Engineering Building
• Located adjacent to the Engineering Fountain, past the Engineering Mall
• There are many student projects on display in glass cases
• There are many labs with various equipment for students to work cooperatively
• There are many faculty members, however most of them are busy inside labs
• It is a fairly large department; there are multiple floors, and many separate labs
Computer Engineering CODO Requirements
• Successfully complete and earn a 3.2 GPA or above in:
1. Math: MA 161, 162,165, 166, 173, 181, 261, 262, 265, 266
2. Science: BIOL 11000, 11100; CHM 11500, 11600, 12300, 12400, 12500, 12600, 13600; CS 15800, 15900; PHYS 17200
3. a) Written Communication, Oral Communication, or Human Cultures course
b) An Introductory Engineering Course
Computer Engineering Plan of Study
• There are five specific Quantitative Reasoning classes required: MA 165, MA 166, MA 261, MA 266, MA 265
• There are three specific Science classes required: CHM 115, PHYS 172, PHYS 272
• There are no foreign language classes required
• There is only one free elective in the plan of study
• The plan of study is full of lab-based classes
• There isn’t much room to add minors; there are many required courses
Aeronautical and Astronautical Overview
• College/School: College of Engineering• The Aero and Astro engineering major deals with any
kind of flight. Ranging from aircraft, missiles, spacecraft, rockets, and international/space systems, a students will know the physics behind each.
• It goes through the processes involved with design, development, analysis, testing, and production.
AAE Courses• Aerodynamics: The properties of air, how it interacts with
objects moving through it• Thermodynamics: The properties of heat and other
energy types during transfer• Structural Analysis: Analysis of a load on a structure. i.e.
buildings, bridges
AAE Careers• Systems Engineer: multidisciplinary,
ensures unity of project, systems• Aeronautical Engineer: designs/produces
aircraft using aerodynamics, fluid mechanic, structural analysis
• Astronautical Engineer: designs/ produces spacecraft or space systems
AAE Department• Neil Armstrong Building• Visually aesthetic with multiple aircrafts,
interactive displays• Many classrooms, labs, people
AAE CODO Requiremnets1. FYE: Category 1: Mathematics: MA 16100, 16200, 16500, 16600, 17300, 18100, 26100, 26200, 26500,
26600 or equivalents.
2. Category 2: Science: BIOL 11000, 11100; CHM 11500, 11600, 12300, 12400, 12500, 12600, 13600; CS 15800, 15900; PHYS 17200 or equivalents.
3. Category 3: Either:
1. One course taken from Core Curriculum Foundational Outcome course, from the Written Communication (typically ENGL 10600 or ENGL 10800), Oral Communication (typically COM 11400), Human Cultures: Humanities, or Human Cultures: Behavioral and Social Sciences Foundational Outcomes lists, or
2. An Introductory Engineering course: ENGR 12600, 13100, 13200, 13300, 14100, 14200, select offerings of ENGR 19500, or equivalents, or EPCS 11100 and 12100.
4. Have a cumulative GPA of 3.2 in the 3 requirements above.
5. Have a cumulative GPA of 3.0 overall to be accepted into AAE.
AAE Plan of Study• Quantitative Reasoning: MA 165, MA 166, MA 261, MA
265, MA 266, MA 304• Science: CHM 115, PHYS 172, PHYS 241• Labs: Aeromechanics, Fluid Mechanics• Free Electives: 0• 130 Credits• AAE students are required to take a business elective and
a communications/writing elective at the 300-level or higher
• 18 credits of general electives
CE VS. AAEThings to consider: • Job Availability• Salary• Rigor of Career/Course Work• Opportunities for Promotion• Computer hardware/software vs. Aircraft hardware/software
CE VS. AAE (cont.)3 Similarities:• Both deal with hardware and software for
their department• Same requirements for Chemistry and
Physics• Both require design and production of a
product
CE VS. AAE3 Differences:
• AAE requires 1 more math than CE• CE deals with programming and computers
and AAE deals with physics and aircraft• CE has 1 free elective, AAE has 0 free
electives
