Does anybody know about any online Bachelors Degrees in Computer Engineering that are ABET accredited?
I don't know of any US based BS Computer Engineering degrees that are RA. Here are some other options: 1) U. of North Dakota offers a BSEE degree by DL. The department also allows you to minor in Computer Science which they call a specialization. However, from looking at their web site I don't see that they offer the CS classes by DL. They might let you take these elsewhere. 2) Major in Computer Science and take as many architecture courses that the program will allow. Unfortunately, DL programs don't seem to be very strong in architecture. 3) Get a BS Computer Science (or comparable degree) and then go for a MS degree in Computer Engineering. There are several program that offer MS Computer Engineering degrees by DL. Good luck. Maybe someone more informed than me can give you some better options.
I am also interested in related Bachelor degrees such as: Computer Technology Electronics Engineering Electronics Technology etc. but something that is beyond Computer Science.
Greeting, It is hard to find a B.S degree in Engineering that is accredited by ABET. There are several post were mentioned before. Check at Weber State University Online Their B.S in Electronic Engineering Technology is accreditd by ABET and they also offer B.S in Computer Engineering Technology http://wsuonline.weber.edu Old Dominion University http://www.odu.edu National Accredited California National University http://www.cnuas.edu Grantham University http://www.grantham.edu Good Luck!
Hmmm, what are you talking about? There is NOTHING beyond Computer Science! Seriously though, the modern Computer Engineering degree is very similar to the Computer Science degree. If you are wanting to design computers or processors then Computer Engineering is the degree you want. However, if your interests are broader and include analog, communications, etc. then Electrical Engineering is definitely a better choice. Just keep in mind that at some schools that I've looked at (University of Florida, Florida Atlantic, University of South Florida) a Computer Engineering degree looks a lot like a Computer Science degree. The biggest difference (if I remember correctly) is that the engineers might be required to take statics/dynamics/materials (those engineeing thingys.) At these schools, the senior level courses are generally shared between CE and CS majors. Its just that the CE major would be "required" to take VLSI design/advanced architecture. The CS major would be able to take these as electives just as the CE would be able to take Theory of Computation, Analysis of Algorithms, etc. as electives.
Yeah, what is wrong with Computer Science? I was looking for B.S in Computer Engineering degree online before...Finally I chose B.S in Computer Science 'cause it is easy to earn the degree not in academic way...'cause Computer Engineering is required labs. Once I have my B.S in Computer Science, I am going to graduate school for Master of Engineering in Computer Engineering. Therefore, I can have both degree....continue for Ph.D in Electrical Engineering if I want to go beyond.... ......for now just serve the Country and obtain B.S in Computer Science, first. Semper Fi,
UND requires that you do some on-campus labs. Are there any programs that do not require labs or that allow you to take labs at a local university?
Greetings, There a lot of schools allow you to apply for Master degree in Computer Engineering by using B.S in Computer Science; however GRE is required and there are certain courses are required prior the degree requirement. I am going to attend at the campus for Master degree...it is nothing wrong with distance. At least how to feel be an actual student at the Campus in my life. Here are some information. The following school, lab can be done at Local University - Web State University (ABET) - University of Central Florida (ABET) - Excelsior College (ABET) No labs or done on computer - Grantham University (No Lab) (DETC) - California National University - (Labs are required to be done on CD through Stimulation) (DETC) Lab has to be done at Campus University of North Carolina University of North Dakota And I believe that Odominion University Lab is through Stimulation or Stream Video. Good Luck with your decission....
What is your opinion of DETC accredited universities? I have researched quite a bit, but I haven't been able to come to a solid conclusion on whether it would be worth it, since these universities are not ABET accredited.
Greetings, It is nothing wrong to obtain a degree that is accredited by DETC; however if you want to transfer to graduate school, it is hard to get accept. And if it is NON-ABET, it takes double times in the degree to hold an actual Engineering certified. If you are going for DETC; I recommend you to go with California National University - Adanced Studies. Their curriculums look more advanced than any others. Here is some info can help you to eliminate on your decission: If you looking for beyond B.S in Engineering, then go with Regional. If you are currently employed, and looking for promotion, go with National (CNUAS). You can try Excelsior College on B.S in Electronic Engineering, it is regional as well as ABET. As you see my prev replies, I want to continue to Ph.D, so I have to stick with regional. Good Luck with your decission.
Greetings. A small but significant correction to TEKMAN's last post: Excelsior College (www.excelsior.edu) offers an ABET-Accredited BSE degree, which is just their odd name for a BSEET (Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering Technology, https://www.excelsior.edu/portal/page?_pageid=57,76039&_dad=portal&_schema=PORTAL). Excelsior does not offer an engineering degree: a BSEET is not an engineering degree, only a technology degree. Cordially, Richard Kanarek
In the study of computer engineering, one learns how to design the electronic circuitry of a computer. Computer science mostly deals with software and algorithmic processes. One would learn about hardware in the study of computer science, but not as in depth as in the study of computer engineering.
While in general I agree with you, you are making much too big a difference between the degrees. A Computer Engineering degree requires the following courses at FAU (at UF they are similar): These are all the courses they share in common: COP 2220 - Intro to Prog in C COT 3002 - Foundations of Computer Science CDA 3201C - Introduction to Logic Design MAD 2104 - Discrete Math COP 3530 - Data Structures & Algor Analysis STA 4821 - Stochastic Models for Computer Science CDA 3331C - Introduction to Microprocessor Systems CEN 4010 - Principles of Software Engineering COP 4610 - Computer Operating Systems COT 4935 - Senior Seminar Here are the courses unique to a typical CE course plan: MAP 2302 - Differential Equations EEL 3111 - Network Analysis CDA 4150 - Computer Design I EEL 3300 - Introduction to Electronics CDA 4105 - Structured Computer Architecture CDA 4420 - Structured Digital Design CDA 4210 - Intro to VLSI EEL 4340 - Digital Electronics EGN XXXX - Engineering Design I EGN XXXX - Engineering Design II Here are the courses unique to a typical CS course plan: COT 4420 - Formal Languages and Automata Theory COT 4400 - Design and Analysis of Algorithms COP 3540 - Into to Database Structures Now the CS degree has 4 - CS Electives, 4 - Free Electives and 1 Math Elective. All of the CDA courses required by CE above (computer architecture) are given in the Computer Science & Engineering department so any of those can be taken. And of course you could use your math elective to take the diff eq class. So when you really look at Computer Engineering vs. Computer Science you see that there is A LOT of overlap. If you go all the way to a PhD changes are you will have take a lot of the graduate level architecture courses.
